Dan Schlereth: Heads to independent league

Schlereth signed with the Long Island Ducks of the independent Atlantic League on Thursday, The Press of Atlantic City reports.

The 32-year-old has a bit of major-league experience, producing a 4.35 ERA in 93 career innings pitched. Schlereth will now head to an independent league, likely with the hope of pitching well enough to make a comeback in affiliated baseball.
