Chris Muller: In search of new organization

The Rays released Muller on Monday.

Even though he cleared waivers after being designated for assignment Sunday, Muller won't stick around in the Rays organization as pitching depth at Triple-A Durham. The 27-year-old right-hander turned in serviceable numbers (4.05 ERA, 1.30 WHIP, 22:7 K:BB) over his 20 innings out of the Durham bullpen this season, so he shouldn't have too much difficulty catching on with another organization on a minor-league deal or finding work overseas on a more lucrative contract.
