Free Agents
The Free Agents subpage lists players in your baseball universe who are not currently under contract to any team. This page is available year-round, although the bulk of free agent signing happens during the offseason if you have free agency enabled in your league.



You can access this area in several ways:

  • Navigate to League Menu >> Free Agents
  • Navigate to League Menu >> Transactions
  • Click on the clipboard icon in the League section of the Icon Bar

Use the Free Agency page to look for players you'd like to sign. You can take advantage of OOTP's Views, Filters, and many of the Common Drop-Downs and Common Action Menus. Review those sections to get a better understanding of how to manipulate the data on this page to suit your needs.

If you find a player of interest, you can offer a contract by right-clicking on the player's name in the list and selecting Offer Contract from the right-click menu. For more information, see Offering Contracts.

Any player without a contract is considered a free agent, even if your league does not have the concept of free agency enabled. Some examples of players who may appear here include players who went undrafted, or those who were released from their contracts. See Free Agency for more information on the overall concept of free agency, how to enable it, and so on.
