AJM summarized it pretty good:

He had an April 3 opt-out date… I think they had probably decided he wasn’t making the team, he said he was going to opt-out, so they let him go now so he could find a job.

"It doesn't look like he's trying. It kinda pisses me off," "He could throw 110 if he tried. The way it explodes out of his hand is really something special." ~ B-Mac on Feliz.

Huh...

That was fast.

Did they also only have him pitch to righties?

no.. the other day he faced two batters...

A LH first who he walked on 4 pitches…

And then a RH who got a hit.

Everyone's recruits look better than ours.

LHP Jimmy Gobble released by the Texas Rangers. For fear of being kicked, cacti across Arizona have gone into hiding. Guava Rodriguez, head of the Local Cactus Union 101 could not be reached for comment.
