AUG. 13: The Cubs have placed Schierholtz on release waivers, tweets Mark Gonzales of the Chicago Tribune. He will officially be a free agent when he clears on Friday.

 

I'm guessing no one wanted to give up anything for him. Can't blame them.

disagree, i bet every team wanted to give up their best player for him but the cubs said no

In case anybody was concerned with Mr. Schierholtz' whereabouts, apparently the Nationals signed him on August 18. He's played 4 games, gone 0-7 since.
