Thirteen MLB free agents received qualifying offers from their teams, including Kyle Schwarber and Gleyber Torres, with most expected to decline. The offers are for a one-year deal worth $22.025 million, and acceptance is possible until November 18. Players who reject the offer will be subject to draft pick compensation for teams signing them, with the Cubs and Padres among the teams with multiple offers. The decision to accept or reject may depend on team negotiations and potential future lockouts.

Max Fried Declines Braves Offer, Enters MLB Free Agency

Originally Published 1 year ago — by The Atlanta Journal Constitution

Max Fried has declined the Atlanta Braves' qualifying offer, a move that was anticipated and does not alter his free agency status. The Braves extended the offer as a formality, and Fried's rejection means he remains a free agent with a strong market ahead. If he signs with another team, the Braves will receive a compensatory draft pick. This situation mirrors past instances with players like Freddie Freeman and Dansby Swanson. The Braves may need to address potential gaps in their pitching rotation as a result.
