What happened: The Minnesota Twins extended a qualifying offer to catcher Ryan Jeffers, a move discussed on MLB Network's MLB Tonight. Jeffers now chooses between the offer and testing free agency.

Why it matters: An MLB Tonight panelist said Jeffers "can make a real impact with the bat which is really hard to find from the catching position." The offer gives Minnesota either his 2027 season or draft-pick compensation if he signs elsewhere.

What to watch: Jeffers has until Nov. 17 to accept or decline the offer, per Jeff Passan.
