Dave Bush has elected free agency. The 33-year-old right-hander fought his way back to the big leagues for the first time since the 2011 season, but surrendered five runs on five hits, including four homers, in his three innings of work. He'll try to continue his career on a minor league deal with an invitation to spring training.

Blue Jays sent RHP Dave Bush outright to Triple-A Buffalo. Bush successfully cleared waivers after he was designated for assignment yesterday. The 33-year-old allowed five runs on five hits (including four home runs) and one walk over three innings of work on Sunday against the Red Sox.

Blue Jays designated RHP Dave Bush for assignment. Bush lasted just two days in his stint with the Blue Jays. The move clears a spot for the recently-claimed Mauro Gomez on the 40-man roster.

Dave Bush threw two hitless innings out of the pen to pick up the win as the Blue Jays bested the Tigers 8-3 on Saturday. Back where he started, Bush is a major long shot to crack the Blue Jays' Opening Day roster after going 4-3 with a 3.16 ERA in 11 starts with the Phillies' Triple-A affiliate and spending some time in Korea last year. Bush went 10-15 with a 4.15 ERA for the Blue Jays in 2004-05 before being shipped to Milwaukee and turning in a couple of nice years for the Brewers.

Blue Jays signed RHP Dave Bush to a minor league contract. Bush pitched fairly well for Triple-A Lehigh Valley in 2012, posting a 3.16 ERA and 1.23 WHIP over 11 starts before exploring an opportunity in the Korean Baseball Organization. While he's a long shot to crack the major league roster out of spring training, he'll serve as valuable insurance at the Triple-A level.

Phillies released RHP Dave Bush. Bush had an opt-out clause in his minor league deal, and he's using it and signing on with a Korean club. He posted a 3.16 ERA over 11 starts at Triple-A Lehigh Valley this season.

Dave Bush has an out clause in his contract that he can exercise on June 1 if the Phillies don't call him up. Bush has posted a 2.61 ERA in 10 starts with Triple-A Lehigh Valley, so the Phillies might be tempted to bring him up in order to avoid losing him. He could conceivably take Roy Halladay's (shoulder) spot in the rotation, but it's more likely he'd be used in a long relief role.

Phillies re-signed RHP Dave Bush to a minor league contract. The contract also includes an invite to spring training. Bush, 32, finished the 2011 season with Triple-A Lehigh Valley after pitching in the majors with the Rangers and at the Triple-A level with the Cubs. The veteran right-hander is a longshot to make Philadelphia's Opening Day roster.

Dave Bush has elected to become a free agent. Bush signed a minor league deal with the Cubs last month and posted a 6.14 ERA over five starts with Triple-A Iowa. The 31-year-old right-hander was released by the Rangers at the end of June after compiling a 5.79 ERA and 23/9 K/BB ratio over three starts and 14 relief appearances. It's unlikely we'll see him again in the majors this season.

Cubs signed RHP Dave Bush to a minor league contract. Bush was cut loose by the Rangers earlier this month after posting a 5.79 ERA in 37 1/3 innings. He'll report to Triple-A Iowa to provide depth but is certainly a longshot to make any kind of impact in the second half.
