10 days ago, the Diamondbacks were responsible for two of the seven players this season who were made qualifying offers. Each of the impending free-agents could accept a one-year offer from their current teams, at a rate of around $18 million for the 2019 season. Or they could decline the offer, hit the open market and see if they could get a longer and/or better contract from the other 29 teams. It’s the first time Arizona has ever been part of the system, with pitcher Patrick Corbin and outfielder A.J. Pollock being tendered these qualifying offers.
