Gearrin (elbow) was released by the Braves on Tuesday, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports. Shoulder issues plagued Gearrin's 2013 campaign, and he missed all of 2014 after undergoing Tommy John surgery in early April. Apparently, the Braves decided they couldn't afford to wait for the right-hander to get healthy, and Gearrin will likely have to prove himself before another club thinks about extending him a serious offer.
