Major League Baseball is one of the major professional sports leagues in America. Currently, in the league, a total of 30 teams, divided into two equal leagues (National and American), compete against each other to win the title. Every team gives their very best to make it into the MLB playoffs, and then the qualified team fights for the MLB Championship.
Every MLB team consists of a minimum of 26 players. All players on the team sign a contract that differs from player to player. Some sign a yearly contract, some sign a multi-year contract, and some sign an extension contract. Well, you might have a question: are there any rules when a player signs a contract?

There are no specific rules when it comes to contract extensions. Just one thing is needed for an extension contract: a contract with a new team. An extension contract can only be signed by a player who has already signed a contract with the team and whose contract is about to end or has expired.
