Former Toronto Blue Jays right-hander Sergio Romo has cleared outright waivers and opted for free agency, the club said on Wednesday.
Romo was designated for assignment on Saturday.
Signed to a one-year contract by Toronto on June 29, the 39-year-old Romo had a 4.91 ERA in 3.2 innings of relief with the club.
The Blue Jays signed Romo after he was released by the Seattle Mariners earlier this year.
A 15-year major-league veteran, Romo won three World Series titles with the San Francisco Giants.
