Second baseman Jorge Polanco’s $12 million option has been declined by the Seattle Mariners, who will pay a $750,000 buyout and allow him to become a free agent

As the 2024 MLB offseason is in full swing, the Mariners have decided to decline the club option of Jorge Polanco, making him a free agent.

The Seattle Mariners declined their club option on second baseman Jorge Polanco for the 2025 season, allowing Polanco to become a free agent and putting the team back on the market at the position.

The Seattle Mariners have had a different second baseman every single year since Robison Cano has been gone. This time, the one-year project with Jorge Polanco has come to an end as the Mariners decline the team-option on his contract for the 2025 season.
