Ohtani, Nola among seven tendered qualifying offers

Seven major league free agents have been tendered a qualifying offer in advance of today’s 4 p.m. Central deadline for teams to make a qualifying offer. Those seven players are:

Cody Bellinger

Matt Chapman

Sonny Gray

Josh Hader

Aaron Nola

Shohei Ohtani

Blake Snell

All seven were expected to receive qualifying offers. At this point, I suspect none of the seven accept.

The only Ranger free agent who was eligible to be tendered a qualifying offer, and who might have been tendered the qualifying offer, is Mitch Garver. The catcher/DH would provide the Rangers with depth at both positions he plays, in the likely event he had accepted, on a one year deal.
