Minor Moves: Corey Hart, Sean O’Sullivan

By Steve Adams | October 6, 2014 at 8:08pm CDT

With teams in preparation for the upcoming offseason, there will be numerous minor outrights over the coming weeks. We’ll run down today’s outrights and other minor moves in this post…

  • After being designated for assignment late in the year by the Mariners, first baseman/DH Corey Hart has elected free agency after clearing outright waivers, MLB.com’s Greg Johns tweets. Though it may or may not have any practical import, Hart will be eligible to sign a new deal now, rather than waiting until until after the World Series for the official onset of free agency.
  • The Phillies announced that they have outrighted Sean O’Sullivan off the 40-man roster. The right-hander will be eligible to become a minor league free agent. O’Sullivan made three appearances (two starts) for the Phils this season, yielding nine runs on 15 hits and a pair of walks with seven strikeouts in 12 2/3 total innings. In parts of five big league seasons, the 27-year-old O’Sullivan has a 5.91 ERA in 231 1/3 innings with 4.3 K/9, 3.5 BB/9 and a 40 percent ground-ball rate.

      Even that isn’t a great idea since he’d take up a roster spot. The M’s took risks on Hart and LoMo and were lucky to have one of them work out, especially the one still under team control. Best to move on for a safer bet than Hart.

    you may be right..but judging by seattle’s track record with signing free agents I think that Hart could still bounce back. we aren’t bringing back morales and i highly doubt we sign any decent free agents so another shot in the dark at harts long lost power for 1.5mil at dh might be worth it

      Let’s hope they don’t bring back Morales. I’m not convinced they won’t end up doing that. They don’t need Hart either. Let’s get some guys who are proven hitters for a change.

    Can’t imagine anybody would pay Hart anything except a minor league deal. He’s 32, missed a full season, came back and didn’t hit at all, can’t play the field, no baserunning value. He’s done as a player. Rather see the M’s try Montero at DH….at least that’s possible upside.

      I don’t see the M’s punting with Montero. They’ll go hard after Victor Martinez.
