MLB 2015-2016 free agent tracker

Jake Roth-USA TODAY Sports

There were 139 players who became free agents the morning after the World Series ended, and several more to join them over the last week with various 2016 options getting declined. Players were free to sign with new teams as of 12:01 a.m. ET on Nov. 7 morning, beginning the bonanza.

The free agent market has seen top-level talent like Zack Greinke, David Price, Johnny Cueto, Jordan Zimmerman, Jason Heyward, and Justin Upton find new homes, while Chris Davis, Alex Gordon, and others have signed new deals to stay with their old teams.

Consider this your one-stop shop for any and all free agent rumors between now and spring training.
