A player in decline? Maybe not yet. Jorge Polanco had the highest barrel rate of his career in 2023. His 8.7% per PA was 31st in MLB and 2nd only to Nolan Gorman at the keystone position. Monday's move was a good one. And the M's could still be great. https://t.co/pJRsDyzBQr

I put together a projection of the Angels' 26-man roster. Will Jo Adell be on the team? What about Ben Joyce? What will the infield depth look like? Here's how I think it'll shake out: https://t.co/oBtepgUSre https://t.co/k0O4i3gArq

I think all the hand wringing about the #Angels outfield situation is a bit overblown. Injuries happen, they’ll happen again, and everyone will get sufficient playing time. Adell would’ve gotten tons of PT last year if he didn’t get hurt. If healthy, he’ll get plenty of PT. https://t.co/PfDGAMeyPh

After the Polanco trade, Twins may consider a return for Donovan Solano. Solano (.760 OPS) was really good for them last year. Minnesota is also looking at outfield help.
Random: Jorge Polanco is now like the fifth or sixth player the Mariners will try as their full-time second basemen since being competitive in pursuing then-free agent Marcus Semien two seasons ago. (Toro, Frazier, Wong, Moore, Cabby)
