If they have been dried, it's probably too late to do anything. You can wash them again using a cup to two cups of bleach or there is a product available that removes dye. Should be with the laundry supplies in the store.

It may not be to late even if it's been dried. In school we used peroxide and baking soda to get blood out of our scrubs and I use it to this day on all of my tough stains. Try (1 cup) hydrogen peroxide and (1/4 cup) baking soda in (1 gallon) distilled water and soak, then put item(s) directly into washer (cold water) and use bleach with your laundry detergent. To prevent these accidental 'pink' whites you may consider always adding a cup of white vinegar to each load of laundry. It doesn't smell very good going in but it helps with fading. Of course all of this is dependent on the fabric care guidelines, but if you are going to toss it anyway its well worth a try!
