MLB News: Jorge Polanco, Mariners Reportedly Agree to Contract After Astros Rumors
The Seattle Mariners have agreed to bring infielder Jorge Polanco back into the mix pending a physical, per Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic.
Polanco, who made his MLB debut in 2014, hit .213 (.651 OPS) with 16 home runs and 45 RBI last season for Seattle. The M's acquired Polanco from the Minnesota Twins last January for right-handed starter Anthony DeSclafani, right-handed reliever Justin Topa and minor league prospects Gabriel Gonzalez (outfielder) and Darren Bowen (right-handed pitcher).
The Houston Astros had serious interest in Polanco, per Chandler Rome of The Athletic.
However, Polanco will be returning to Seattle for his second year in town.
