Eligibility
Amir Garrett has agreed to a minor-league contract with the Angels.
Fantasy Impact
Garrett was released by the Giants late in Spring Training, but he has now joined up with the Angels and been assigned to Triple-A Salt Lake. Garrett will provide experienced, organizational depth for the Angels' bullpen. He posted a 3.33 ERA with 28 strikeouts over 24 1/3 innings for the Royals last season, but the lefty has always struggled with walks (career 5.2 BB/9).
Veteran reliever Amir Garrett has been released by the Giants.
Fantasy Impact

The San Francisco Giants have signed free-agent pitcher Amir Garrett to a minor-league deal.
Fantasy Impact
The veteran will get an invite to big-league spring training as part of the minors pact. The left-hander posted a 3.33 ERA across 27 outings with the Royals in 2023 but also worked to a 5.56 FIP, 5.10 SIERA, and allowed a massive 17.9% BB%, meaning regression was certain moving forward.
The Cleveland Guardians have signed reliever Amir Garrett to a minor-league deal.
Fantasy Impact
Garrett was designated for assignment by the Royals earlier in July and ended up becoming a free agent shortly after. He'll head to Cleveland on a minors pact but has been assigned to Triple-A Columbus for the time being. The left-hander owns a career 4.95 ERA across 322 appearances and actually pitched to a 3.33 ERA with Kansas City this season. The problem was a monstrous 17.9% BB% while Garrett has long had issues finding the zone, as per his career 13.2% BB%.

Fantasy Impact
Garrett had a rough outing on Thursday, allowing four runs (two earned) in just 0.1 innings, but has been solid with the Royals overall. He had a 3.33 ERA and 10.36 K/9 in 24.1 innings with the Royals in 2023 and will look to find a new home elsewhere.
