Jorge Polanco Endures Historic Disappointment in First Season with Mets

Signed to a two-year, $40 million deal, Jorge Polanco suffered through one of the worst seasons in Mets history, posting a .148/.201/.230 slash line and a -1.4 fWAR across 37 games. Persistent lower leg injuries limited him to just two starts at first base before forcing him into a full-time designated hitter role. Entering his age-33 season, Polanco faces major questions regarding his future with the franchise as he attempts to bounce back from an injury-plagued campaign.
