The Angels announced that they have selected the contracts of right-handers and . Infielder was also reinstated from the 10-day injured list. In corresponding moves, right-hander and infielder have been optioned to Triple-A, whilerighty has been designated for a signment. The club had one open 40-man vacancy coming into today. The Angels have been busy swapping in fresh arms to their bullpen lately. After some heavy bullpen usage on Thursday and Friday, Tou saint and Darrell-Hicks were called up on Saturday. On Sunday, the club got torched, losing 13-1 to the Tigers. Both pitchers took on some mop-up duty and have been swapped out for more fresh arms today. Neris, 36 next month, just signed a minor league deal with the club a couple of months ago. He started the season on a minor league deal with Atlanta and made the Opening Day roster but was bumped off after two bad appearances. He elected free agency and landed a new deal with the Halos. He has since made four Triple-A appearances, allowing two earned runs with eight strikeouts and one walk. The righty has a lengthy track record of major league succe s but has been more wobbly in recent years. In 2021, he had a 31.6% strikeout rate but that dropped to 30%, 28.2% and 24.6% in subsequent seasons. He was able to work around that with a 1.17 ERA in 2023 but that jumped to 4.10 last year, which likely led to him settling for a minor league deal with Atlanta coming into 2025. Brogdon, Coco Montes Jersey 30, signed a minor league deal with the Halos in January. He has thrown 14 2/3 Triple-A innings this year, allowing 21 earned runs for an eye-popping 12.89 ERA. His 25.3% strikeout rate is actually pretty good and his 9.6% walk rate pa sable but he has allowed six home runs already in that span. He was a solid major leaguer as of a few years ago but has been struggling more recently. He to sed 113 innings for the Phillies over the 2020 to 2022 seasons with a 3.42 ERA, 25.1% strikeout rate and 7.3% walk rate. But in 2023, his ERA jumped to 4.03, with a 20.5% strikeout rate and 10.2% walk rate. Last year was mostly lost due to injuries, with plantar fasciitis being the main culprit. The Angels presumably hoped to get him back on track but the Triple-A results so far this year have been mixed, to say the least. As mentioned earlier, Tou saint gets bumped off the roster just a few days after being added. He to sed two innings in his lone appearance, allowing two earned runs on four hits and a walk while striking out three. He should be placed on waivers in the coming days. Once a notable prospect, he has never been able to rein in his control enough to find succe s. In 282 1/3 major league innings, he has a 5.42 ERA, 23.1% strikeout rate and 47.6% ground ball rate but a big 14.1% walk rate. Photo courtesy of Denis Poroy, Imagn Images Anthony Molina Jersey
