The deadline for teams to tender contracts to players who are eligible for arbitration has come and gone. In total, 24 players were non-tendered, including a few who weren't even arb-eligible, and are now free agents. Another five players who were designated for assignment recently were also non-tendered, although I didn't include them on the list because they had already been removed from their team's 40-man roster.
