MLB Qualifying Contract Offers Tracker and Updates Ahead of 2026 MLB Free Agency
The Milwaukee Brewers may still be celebrating their World Series title, but MLB teams are already looking ahead to the 2027 season and what figures to be a busy offseason.
One of the first steps of that offseason is the qualifying offer system, which allows teams to make a one-year qualifying offer to impending free agents as long as they have never received such an offer in the past. If a player who receives the offer signs elsewhere, their former team will receive draft-pick compensation.
This year's qualifying offer for the 2027 season is $23.15 million, and players who receive it have until 4 p.m. ET on Nov. 17 to decide whether they accept it. Those who accept it will remain with their team on the one-year deal, while those who reject it will become free agents.
Here is a look at everyone who received the offer.
