Ty France has elected free agency after being outrighted by the Cincinnati Reds, marking a significant shift in his career. Previously designated for assignment by the Mariners, he struggled offensively in Seattle with a .223 batting average and eight home runs. However, he showed improvement with the Reds, hitting .251 over his final 52 games, contributing five home runs and 20 RBIs. Given his prior All-Star status and experience, he is expected to secure a new opportunity this offseason, although it remains uncertain whether he will need to settle for a minor league deal.
