The MLB Trade Rumors Free Agent Prediction Contest is now open! Click here to enter your picks for the destinations for our top 50 free agents. The deadline for entry is Monday November 11th at 11pm central time. You can edit your picks until then. Further contest info:
- After the window to make picks has closed, we’ll post a public leaderboard page so you can see who’s winning the contest as players sign with teams. We’re going to use entrants’ full names on it. So, if that concerns you, please do not enter the contest. Entries with inappropriate names will be deleted.
- We are also collecting email addresses, which I will use to notify winners.
- If a player signs between now and the close of the contest, that player will be excluded from the contest.
- After you submit your picks, you’ll receive an email from Google Forms. In that email, you’ll see a button that allows you to edit your picks.
- We will announce the winners on MLBTR once all 50 free agents have signed. We will award $500 to first place, $300 to second place, and $100 to third place. We will also be giving one-year memberships to Trade Rumors Front Office for everyone who finishes in the top 15. Winners must respond to an email within one week.
- The winners of this contest will be declared on Opening Day 2025, and any unsigned players will be excluded from the competition.
- Ties in the correct number of picks will be broken by summing up the rankings of the free agents of the correct picks and taking the lower total. For example: Tim and Steve each get two picks correct. Tim gets Juan Soto (#1 ranking) and Clay Holmes (#21 ranking) for a total of 22 points. Steve gets Max Fried (#6) and Tanner Scott (#14) for a total of 20 points. Steve’s total is lower and he’s ahead of Tim for tiebreaker purposes.
If you have any further questions, ask us in the comment section of this post! Otherwise, make your picks now!

One question?!
Regarding: “ We’re going to use entrants’ full names on it.”
Mlbtr full names, I presume, rather than our names in real life?
Thanks.

I think I answered that question for myself by clicking on the Click here link. Got it.

This is not going to go well. I have way less of a handle on this market than years past. I think there are going to be several quality players without contracts when the music stops. The TV uncertainty is going to keep 10 or so clubs out of the market entirely.

Yeah should be interesting. You got a few teams ready to spend but not as many as years past. Bregman is a guy i just can’t peg where he signs. Toronto makes sense I guess. Doubt the Cardinals are involved in any big names. I don’t think they sell off much at all but also don’t think they sign many guys either. Right handed hitting centerfielder is a need we have talked about that.

Aren’t we gonna wait 3 more years for VSII to mature. Siani could break out in a couple of years and Nootbar can cover CF for the weeks he is available. As

I think either Siani or Scott needs to be dealt. 2 lefty hitting centerifelders who can’t hit isn’t a good fit on the roster.
I want Luis Robert but I don’t think the team is looking to trade the young talent it would require to get him let alone pay him.
