The World Series should be over in a few days, thus the offseason for the Dodgers will start up soon.

Which players have open contracts? This offseason, the Dodgers have a sizable list of free agents.

The stars of the show are Trea Turner, Tyler Anderson, and Clayton Kershaw.

[{"selector":"#anim-f4c5cb89-a815-408e-8d84-a81e15408774","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-223ebd1e-2d31-46bf-ba9f-7b05522962ed","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 363.06104%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

If the price is right, Los Angeles will also be interested in re-signing Chris Martin and Tommy Kahnle.

Additionally, David Price, Craig Kimbrel, and Andrew Heaney will go on the open market.

[{"selector":"#anim-279dfb8d-579b-4b64-8097-0c131435bee3","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-e0df02f7-efda-4b71-b506-6d3da7232556","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 363.06104%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Within five days of the World Series' conclusion, the time for extending qualifying offers expires.

Within five days of the World Series' conclusion, the time for extending qualifying offers expires.

[{"selector":"#anim-db51dbec-ba99-450d-a1a1-761f4bbc15ef","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-92ceecac-7da3-474f-a92f-14bd5c294f58","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 302.88517%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

The easiest one is to pick up Turner's option and have him locked up for next season.

[{"selector":"#anim-7f63fd41-9bbf-434b-a87f-1cb9aab842e4","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-31d002b3-0418-42cd-8680-c11e38e31f2b","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 363.06104%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Or, the Dodgers could choose to decline Turner's option and proceed with Max Muncy and Miguel Vargas as their third basemen next season.

[{"selector":"#anim-23b7d83a-0908-4d57-9893-271966613fe7","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-5183bc8f-d0d8-4c80-ac8c-81a23030b099","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 241.09715%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Within five days of the World Series' conclusion, that choice must be made.

Nelson's club option will cost $1.1 million if it is exercised, while Alberto's is worth $2 million.

Who might qualify as a non-tender candidate, and when must the club decide?

When Cody Bellinger became a free agent three years ago, the majority of people questioned what type of record deal he could get.
