Sox give no qualifying offers
Sunday 4pm is the deadline for teams to extend qualifying offers. Deadline to decline or accept is 10 days after the offer is extended.

Players who decline become free agents, but if they sign with any team other than their former team, the signing team must surrender a draft pick to the former team.
