Braves Release Cory Gearrin

By Steve Adams | November 11, 2014 at 5:38pm CDT

The Braves have released right-hander Cory Gearrin, reports Mark Bowman of MLB.com (Twitter link). The 28-year-old underwent Tommy John surgery this past April.

Gearrin didn’t take the mound in 2014 but did pitch well for the Braves in 2012-13, totaling 51 innings of work and pitching to a 3.00 ERA with 7.6 K/9, 3.7 BB/9 and a ground-ball rate well north of 50 percent. The side-armer has a 4.28 ERA in 69 1/3 career innings, though stats like FIP (3.43) and SIERA (3.41) give him much more credit than that mark.

Gearrin’s release drops the Braves’ 40-man roster count from 37 to 36 and creates some additional room for the club to protect players from the Rule 5 Draft or to add additional players via free agency and trade.

      The Braves aren’t paying Gearrin $46 million the next 3 seasons.

    I liked Cory. He was an undervalued ROOGY and should be picked up quickly.
