It's official: Miguel Gonzalez has cleared waivers and is officially released from the Orioles. He is a free agent able to sign anywhere.
It's a sad day in Birdland as it's now official that Miguel Gonzalez has cleared waivers and been given his outright release by the Orioles. He is now a free agent, free to sign with any team.
For all that the decision caused some angst, there is no getting around the fact that just now, any one of the 29 other MLB teams could have put a claim on Gonzalez and none of them chose to do so.
