Rest-of-Season Projections
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Polanco underwent knee surgery in October after playing through the injury for the Mariners, but the organization declined his $12 million club option for 2025 since he posted a career-worst .213/.296/.355 slash line in 118 games. He later re-signed with Seattle to a one-year, $7.75 million deal. The veteran infielder is expected to be fully healthy for the start of the season, but his injury history is a concern since he's played 120 games in a season just three times since becoming an MLB regular in 2017. Even after the down offensive year, Polanco still has a .765 OPS for his career, and he's a decent rebound candidate since he's entering his age-31 campaign. He's hit at least 14 home runs in each of the past five full-length seasons, and he has a .259 batting average during that stretch. Polanco carries some risk given last year's performance, but that could also drive down his cost for fantasy managers looking for an affordable infielder. The big question is whether he can stay healthy in 2025, which has been a common refrain throughout his career. Read Past Outlooks

Sitting again versus lefty
Polanco is not in the lineup for Thursday's game in Boston.
ANALYSIS
The switch-hitting Polanco remains limited from the right side of the plate as he manages a side injury, so he'll take a seat as the Red Sox send southpaw Garrett Crochet to the bump. Cal Raleigh is in the designated-hitter spot Thursday, while Mitch Garver starts at catcher.

Stat Review
How does Jorge Polanco compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

Polanco again battled durability issues in 2023, missing significant time due to ankle, knee and hamstring injuries, but he registered a .789 OPS with 14 home runs across 80 games when healthy. Polanco missed the final month of 2022 with a knee injury and his rehab then stalled during spring training postponing his debut until late April. He then missed about eight weeks between two IL stints for a strained left hamstring. When healthy, he had similar underlying metrics as last season with a strong walk rate (10.5%), a slightly better hard hit rate (40.6% to 38.7%), exit velocity (88.4 to 89.0) and Barrel rate (13.8 to 10.2). Defensive metrics were a mixed bag for evaluating his defense, but he's still seen as a good defender when healthy. He also played 15 games at third base when the Twins were thin at the hot corner, which could give him added position eligibility in some formats. Polanco has decent power for a middle infielder and good command of the strike zone, so he can still produce like his All-Star season when healthy. However, he may be a significant health risk since he's missed significant time to injury each of the last two seasons.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Houston maintains interest
The Astros continue to show strong interest in Polanco, who is recovering from left knee surgery, Chandler Rome and Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic report.
ANALYSIS
Polanco has played only in the infield at the big-league level, but the Astros could ask him to play left field, per the report. The 31-year-old slashed just .213/.296/.355 in 2024 while playing through a knee injury, but he's expected to be ready for spring training. At least a modest bounce-back seems reasonable. The Yankees and Blue Jays have also been connected to Polanco, and both of those clubs would presumably keep him on the infield.
