Belisario cleared waivers and elected free agency Saturday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports. After he was designated for assignment Tuesday, Belisario has opted to explore his options on the open market. The 32-year-old righty spent much of the season with Triple-A Durham, but in six appearances for the Rays, he struggled mightily to the tune of a 7.88 ERA, 1.50 WHIP, and 6:4 K:BB in eight innings. As a result, he'll likely have to accept a minor league deal.
