20 Eddie Rosario LF

Rosario was non-tendered by the Twins on Wednesday, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

The move is hardly a surprise after the team placed the 29-year-old on outright waivers Tuesday, which he cleared. He'll now be hitting the open market. Rosario struggled in the field last season and also saw his OPS dip to .792, his lowest mark since 2016.

Rosario went unclaimed off waivers Wednesday, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

With Rosario expected to be due around $10 million in arbitration this offseason, none of baseball's other 29 teams were willing to scoop the outfielder up at that projected salary level following a season in which he struggled defensively and saw his slash line fall to .257/.316/.476. The Twins will still have until 7 p.m. ET on Wednesday to attempt to re-sign Rosario to a club-friendlier deal, but if an agreement can't be worked out, the 29-year-old would hit the open market as an unrestricted free agent.

Rosario was placed on outright waivers Tuesday by the Twins and is available to be claimed by any team until 1 p.m. ET on Wednesday, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.

If no teams bite on the waiver wire, Rosario could be non-tendered by the Twins ahead of Wednesday's roster deadline.
