The recently implemented collective bargaining agreement outlines new opt-out dates for free agent players who sign minor league deals under Article XX(b). This includes players with over six years of MLB service and others from foreign leagues who qualify. The opt-out opportunity allows players to leave their contracts before the season starts and gives teams 48 hours to decide their next steps. With the first opt-out approaching, a list of 36 players eligible is highlighted, shedding light on the implications for team rosters and player movements.
The new collective bargaining agreement introduced uniform opt-out dates for MLB players on minor league contracts, allowing them to opt-out before the season begins.
