Dodgers see nine players become free agents as MLB offseason begins

Summary

The MLB offseason commenced following the conclusion of the World Series, with free agency starting last Thursday. Nine players from the Dodgers, including Tarik Skubal and four relievers, became free agents. As of Monday, all major league contract options were resolved, leading to a pool of 183 players available for signing.

The Dodgers currently have 37 players on their 40-man roster after removing others from the injured list. Important upcoming dates include November 17 for roster additions to protect against the Rule 5 Draft and November 20 for potential non-tenders.
