Friday was decision day for clubs as they had until 4pm CST to extend qualifying offers to their free agents.  Players who received the one-year, $13.3MM offer now have until November 9th to accept the deal.  If the player turns down the offer and signs elsewhere, the team will get a compensatory draft pick in June.  Here's a look at the nine players who received offers this winter..

• Michael Bourn, Braves
• Josh Hamilton, Rangers
• Hiroki Kuroda, Yankees
• Adam LaRoche, Nationals
• Kyle Lohse, Cardinals
• David Ortiz, Red Sox (Ortiz and the Red Sox later agreed to a two-year, $26MM deal)
• Rafael Soriano, Yankees
• Nick Swisher, Yankees
• B.J. Upton, Rays
