Abad was designated for assignment Friday.
Analysis:
Abad got off to a very rocky start to the 2015 season, but eventually settled in and posted a 4.15 ERA and 45 strikeouts in 47.2 innings. The move was a procedural one to clear space on the team's 40-man roster, but Abad should see time in the majors next season wherever he plays.
