Yacksel Ríos: Breaking News

Released by Cubs

The Cubs released Rios on Monday. Rios made one scoreless appearance for the Cubs earlier this season but has spent most of the year at Triple-A Iowa, posting a 4.24 ERA and 15:10 K:BB over 17 frames. The 32-year-old will now be on the lookout for a deal with a new organization.

Outrighted to Triple-A

The Cubs outrighted Rios to Triple-A Iowa on Wednesday. Rios had been removed from the 40-man roster and went unclaimed on waivers. The 32-year-old reliever has the ability to decline the outright assignment and elect free agency, but it's unclear what he plans to do. Rios tossed 1.2 scoreless innings in his lone outing with the Cubs.

Dropped from 40-man roster

The Cubs designated Rios for assignment Sunday. During his week-long stint in the majors, Rios made just one appearance out of the bullpen, tossing 1.2 scoreless innings last Sunday's loss to the Dodgers. The 32-year-old reliever will now be subject to the waiver process, and if he goes unclaimed, he'll have the option of electing free agency.
