Cubs reliever Rob Zastryzny cleared waivers and was outrighted off the 40-man roster following the acquisition of Ryan Brasier. Zastryzny has the option to elect free agency, having been outrighted multiple times. Originally drafted by Chicago in 2013, he made his MLB debut with their World Series team in 2016 and has since played for five teams, showing fluctuating performance. His solid stats at the Triple-A level last year impressed the Cubs, but roster flexibility ultimately limited their ability to retain him.
