MLB’s slow season saw some activity this week, with Wednesday night marking the No-Bid deadline. The teams had until 8 p.m. ET to decide whether to bid for player contracts eligible for arbitration.
Players who have been awarded contracts must reach an agreement with their team for the next season, either by reaching an agreement with the club or determining their contract through arbitration. Those whose contracts have not yet been floated will join the Free Agents category for this year.
Here is a news compilation list from the Wednesday non-bid deadline. It will be updated with more names revealed.
