Placed on release waivers
Sipp was placed on release waivers Monday, Jesse Dougherty of The Washington Post reports.
ANALYSIS
This move comes after Sipp cleared outright waivers and declined a minor-league assignment. Assuming the lefty isn't claimed on release waivers by the end of the week, he'll head to free agency.

Coming off a sterling 2015 when he held a 1.99 ERA and 10.3 K/9, Sipp struggled by comparison in 2016. His ERA bloated to 4.95, in large part due to a 2.5 HR/9, the second highest in the league among pitchers with at least 40 innings. A left-hander with a good slider and a good changeup, Sipp has pitched even left/right splits over his career, making him more than just a LOOGY. While 2015 was a career year, 2016 seems like somewhat of an outlier on the other end of the spectrum, with his true talent lying somewhere in between. Sipp has two years and $12 million left on his contract, so he will definitely be given relief opportunities for the Astros in 2017. But with Ken Giles and Luke Gregerson set to anchor a crowded bullpen that could become even more crowded with free-agent acquisitions, the 33-year-old Sipp is unlikely to see many high-leverage situations in 2017.
