Pete Kozma: Parts ways with Oakland

Kozma was released by the Athletics on Tuesday.

Kozma had his contract selected by the Athletics for the final weekend of the regular season, and he elected free agency after being removed from the 40-man roster. He spent the rest of the season at Triple-A and hit .244/.307/.337 with four homers, 40 RBI, 24 runs and six stolen bases in 113 games.
