View More NewsEdwin Encarnacion intends to play in 2021
Jon Heyman of MLB Network reports that free agent Edwin Encarnacion intends to continue playing in 2021.
Fantasy Impact
The 37-year-old struggled in the shortened 2020 campaign, batting just .157 with a .627 OPS. Chicago then declined his $12 million option for 2021. With top prospect Andrew Vaughn nearing the majors Chicago likely won't have much interest in bringing Encarnacion back, even on a cheaper deal.
