Gee has been placed on outright waivers for the purpose of sending him to Triple-A Las Vegas after trade discussions fell apart, ESPN New York reports. If Gee is not claimed, he will clear waivers at 1 p.m. ET Tuesday. As Gee has more than three years of major league service, he could refuse an assignment to Las Vegas if he clears waivers and declare free agency. However, he is unlikely to do so because he would lose the remaining $3.1 million on his salary still owed to him this season. If Gee does go to Las Vegas and is not promoted later in the season, he can declare free agency when the season ends.
