The Nationals released Owings on Monday, Amanda Comak of the Washington Times reports.

Owings posted a respectable .785 OPS in 57 games with Triple-A Syracuse this season, his first as a first baseman and not a pitcher. However, with a call to Washington not on the horizon, he decided to pursue a new opportunity. Expect him to find work with another club.
