Today MLS held the first stage of their de facto free agency with the annual Re-Entry draft, where teams select players who are out of contract or had their 2015 options declined. The draft was held at Noon PST today, with the Stage Two draft taking place Noon PST on December 18th.
All players chosen will have their 2015 options picked up by the selecting team, while any out of contract player chosen would require the selecting team to submit a bona fide offer, which usually equates to a 5-15% raise from the previous season. However, none of the three drafted players were out of contract, so their 2015 options will be exercised. Any player not selected is eligible for RED2.
