Brett Myers was told by Phillies GM Ruben Amaro Jr. on Friday that he would not be brought back in 2010, making him a free agent.
Myers went 4-3 with a 4.84 ERA in 2009, a season that was derailed by an injured right hip that required surgery in June. Myers rejoined the team in September as a relief pitcher, but a strained right latissimus dorsi muscle sidelined him for a couple more weeks. Don't dismiss the possibility of a comeback for Myers, who could slide into either a starting or relief role depending on where he signs this offseason.
