Taylor Ward Concludes Disappointing Season Heading Into Free Agency

Taylor Ward enters free agency following a disappointing, abbreviated year split between Baltimore and Seattle. After a trade from the Angels, his power vanished with only seven home runs, though he drew 99 walks for a high OBP. Struggling defensively in left field and mustering just 11 hits in 101 plate appearances with the Mariners, Ward faces an uncertain market at age 33 after posting his worst season since his rookie campaign.
