"The deadline to tender a contract to arbitration-eligible players is tonight at 4pm CT this afternoon. Below is a comprehensive list of players on National League teams who have been non-tendered today, which will be updated as more decisions are revealed throughout the day. MLBTR contributor Matt Swartz projected 2026 salaries for all arbitration-eligible players last month. Non-tendered players will immediately enter free agency without needing to pass through waivers and can then be signed by any of the league's 30 teams."
"The Cubs non-tendered catcher Reese McGuire, per ESPN's Jesse Rogers. He hit .226/.245/.444 through 140 plate appearances in a backup catcher role and was arb-eligible for the final time. He'd been projected to earn $1.9MM. The Dodgers did not tender a contract to closer Evan Phillips, reports Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic. He was only under club control for one more season and projected for a $6.1MM salary but underwent Tommy John surgery in June."
