SEATTLE, May 16 (UPI) -- Outfielder Milton Bradley's days with the Seattle Mariners are over, the American League club said Monday.

The Mariners put Bradley, 33, on irrevocable waivers for the purpose of granting him his unconditional release. He had been designated for assignment May 9.

Bradley hit .218 with two homers and 13 RBI in 28 games this season after a paltry .205 with eight homers and 29 RBI in 73 games last year.

Bradley arrived in Seattle in a December 2009 trade with the Chicago Cubs for pitcher Carlos Silva, who is now in the minor leagues after one season in Chicago.

Bradley reached the majors in 2000 with Montreal. He is a career .271 hitter with 125 home runs and 481 RBI in 1,042 games with eight teams.
