Friday was the deadline to tender arbitration eligible players a contract for 2025 and it led to a lot of interesting decisions across the league. It’s kind of a bummer when players that still have some value are let go simply because teams do not feel like going before the arbitration panel against them, but that is the nature of the game.
After all, it allowed the Phillies to not have to pay Austin Hays nearly $6 million.
This is a complete list of all the players that were nontendered on Friday. Scanning the list, there are names there that could lead the Phillies to give their agents a phone call.
