Bourgeois was outrighted off the 40-man roster on Friday, C. Trent Rosecrans of the Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Bourgeois missed the majority of the first half of the season with a fracture in his left shoulder, then struggled to the tune of a .240/.294/.332 line the rest of the way. The 33-year-old will likely be reduced to a fourth outfielder role next season.
