Veteran Rays relievers Chad Bradford and Russ Springer, who both are considering retirement, were among 39 players who filed for free agency on Friday.
Bradford, 35, was 1-0, 4.35 but limited to 20 games due to a series of injuries; Springer, 41 today, was 1-4, 4.11 in 26 games after his August acquisition from Oakland.
Troy Percival, who still plans to retire according to agent Paul Cohen, filed Thursday as a matter of procedure. Jason Isringhausen, whose season ended with elbow surgery, is also eligible.
None are expected to be resigned.
