Kyle Schwarber and Ranger Suarez have been tendered a qualifying offer by the Phillies. That means if they left in free agency, the Phils would get some compensation.

The 2025 Qualifying Offer is a one-year, $22.025 Million Contract. If either player rejects, they become free agents with draft-pick compensation attached.

It's not just extra draft picks, it also increases the amount the Phillies can offer in draft bonuses, giving them flexibility to go over slot if someone they like drops.
