Slots order NEED first, then WATCH; SET and UNKNOWN slots list no one. Within a slot the need is fixed, so candidates rank by availability certainty (scheduled free agents first), then name. Candidates are players with a sourced potential free-agent path (MLB.com, “Here's how future free-agent classes look”, 2026-05-02); trade candidates are not inferred.
The rules this plays under.
- Governs seasons
- 2022–2026
- Agreement expires
- 2026-12-01
- Roster limits
- 26-man active · 40-man reserve
- 2026 base threshold
- $244M

Threshold schedule per the 2022 CBA (source: House That Hank Built — CBT thresholds 2022–2026). No threshold exists for 2027 — every rule past this agreement’s term is subject to collective bargaining. See CBA Watch.
What we will not pretend to know.
- Club payroll / commitments
- Not tracked — Posterior does not load a payroll dataset with a reliable public source, so no dollar figure is shown.
- Club spending capacity
- Unknown. Internal budgets and spending authority are not public, and this page never states one.
- What would appear here
- Guaranteed commitments, arbitration estimates, options, and dead money — each only with a public source attached.
