Key Details of MLB International Signing Period
Requirements: Allows teams to sign amateur players not from the United States, Canada, or Puerto Rico.
Dates: The period officially opens on January 15 and closes on December 15.
Eligibility: Players must be at least 16 when they sign and must turn 17 before September 1 of the signing year.
Bonus Pools: Each MLB organization has a limited pool of money to spend, with varying amounts based on factors such as draft picks and penalties.
Verbal Agreements: Teams often agree to terms with players months or even years in advance, but January 15 is when contracts are officially signed.
No Draft: International players sign as free agents, not through the MLB Draft, which is for domestic players.
