Rob Bradford of WEEI.com reports that there has been "a number of inquiries" on free agent outfielder Marlon Byrd.
Byrd was officially released by the Red Sox on Tuesday after being designated for assignment over the weekend. While the 34-year-old outfielder is hitting just .210/.243/.245 with one homer and a .488 OPS in 153 plate appearances this year, he shouldn't have much trouble finding a new home at the league minimum. It's not clear which teams are interested, though.
