Nine Players Elect Free Agency

By Mark Polishuk | October 5, 2024 at 7:59am CDT

As the offseason nears, a number of players elect minor league free agency each week. These players are separate from six-year MLB free agents, who’ll reach the open market five days after the conclusion of the World Series. Eligible minor leaguers can begin electing free agency as soon as the regular season wraps up. These players were all outrighted off a team’s 40-man roster during the year and have the requisite service time and/or multiple career outrights necessary to reach free agency since they weren’t added back to teams’ rosters.

Electing free agency is the anticipated outcome for these players. There’ll surely be more to test the market in the coming weeks. We’ll offer periodic updates at MLBTR. These transactions are all reflected on the MiLB.com log.

      Nick Maton might be a good non roster invite for Milwaukee. Helps provide some depth after Adames leaves.

          Piñatas encourage children to swing at animals with a stick. Embarrassing that you would support this

    Diego Castillo should definitely attract some interest from teams. He had a pretty solid run with TB several years back.

    RIP Harry Chappas, the diminutive shortstop who was a minor sensation in the late 1980’s.
