Bill Plunkett, of The Orange County Register, reports Oakland Athletics RP Alan Embree filed for free agency Monday, Nov. 3.
Embree, who signed a two-year deal with the A's before the 2007 season and served as their interim closer that year while Huston Street was injured, saw his role reduced considerably in 2008, often pitching in mop-up situations late in the year.
News: The Athletics declined their $3 million option on RP Alan Embree, making him a free agent.
Analysis: Embree had 17 saves in 2007, but he had an ERA close to 5.00 in 2008. Wherever he signs, he'll likely work in middle relief. Ignore him except in the deepest of Fantasy leagues
CBSSports.com reports the Oakland Athletics declined their $3 million option on RP Alan Embree for the 2009 season Friday, Oct. 31.
The AP reports that the Oakland Athletics declined their $3 million option for lefty reliever Alan Embree on Friday.Embree went 2-5 with a 4.96 ERA in 70 outings this past season after going 1-2 with 17 saves and a 3.97 ERA in 68 appearances in 2007. The 38-year-old will surely find another team to pitch for by spring training.
