The nontender deadline has come and gone, and several notable players are among the batch of players looking for work.
Rays: Ben Francisco
Blue Jays: Bobby Wilson
Rangers: Geovany Soto, Brandon Snyder
Orioles: Mark Reynolds
Red Sox: Rich Hill, Ryan Sweeney
Indians: Jack Hannahan, Rafael Perez
Tigers: Daniel Schlereth
Nationals: John Lannan, Tom Gorzelanny
Cubs: Ian Stewart
Mets: Andres Torres, Mike Pelfrey, Manny Acosta
Braves: Jair Jurrjens, Peter Moylan
Phillies: Nate Schierholtz
Pirates: Jeff Karstens
Giants: Brian Wilson
Brewers: Manny Parra

None of these names really *surprise* me, but I am a little stunned that the Cubs punted on Stewart just a year after acquiring him from the Rockies, and that the Phillies are already calling it quits with Schierholtz after he was the lone major league ...
