"Now that the season is over, we'll start seeing several players choose to become minor league free agents. Major League free agents (i.e. players with six-plus years of big league service time) will hit the open market five days after the end of the World Series, but eligible minor leaguers can already start electing free agency."
"These players also must have multiple career outrights on their resume, and/or at least three years of Major League service time. We'll offer periodic updates over the coming weeks about many other players hitting the market in this fashion. Unless otherwise credited, these free agent decisions are all listed on the official MLB.com or MILB.com transactions pages, for further reference."
Minor-league players who were entirely outrighted off their team's 40-man roster during the 2025 season and were not re-added can elect minor-league free agency now. To qualify, players must have multiple prior career outrights and/or at least three years of Major League service time. Major League free agents with six or more years of MLB service will reach the open market five days after the World Series. Periodic updates will report additional players electing free agency, and official transaction listings on MLB.com and MILB.com provide source documentation. Position group listings include catchers, outfielders, and pitchers.
