Mariners option Greg Halman to Triple A Tacoma, release Jack Cust

The Mariners have optioned the struggling Greg Halman to Triple A Tacoma, and the team officially released Jack Cust. The team had designated Cust for assignment, and since no one claimed him off waivers, the Mariners could either outright him to Tacoma or release him.
