Joe Frisaro of MLB.com says the Florida Marlins have released right-handed pitcher Seth McClung.

McClung was signed to a Minor League contract in early February and had an opt-out clause that he could have exercised this week if he felt that he was not in the Marlins’ Opening Day plans.

McClung, 27 tomorrow, was 3-3 with a 4.94 ERA in 41 appearances (2 starts) with the Brewers in 2009. You can see McClungs contract history and statistics here.
