The Guardians released Parsons on Thursday. Parsons went unclaimed off waivers after being DFA'd by Cleveland last Friday, and he'll now look for another opportunity with another organization. The 31-year-old righty has allowed six earned runs in nine MLB innings between the Guardians and Blue Jays, and he put up a 4.21 ERA and 1.71 WHIP across 25.2 frames at Triple-A Columbus.

Arthur Parsons: Breaking News
The Guardians designated Parsons for assignment Friday. The transaction frees up a spot on the 40-man roster for Spencer Howard, who was acquired via trade Friday. Parsons has posted a career 6.84 ERA over 38 appearances across parts of four major-league seasons.
The Guardians optioned Parsons to Triple-A Columbus on Thursday. Parsons was pushed off the big-league roster in order to make room for Pedro Avila, who was acquired from San Diego on Wednesday. Parsons has given up six earned runs in nine innings this season between the Guardians and Blue Jays, and he may return to Cleveland later in the year as a multi-inning relief option.
