| The Angels transferred Yusei Kikuchi to the 60-day injured list. Ari Koslow Fri, May 22nd | Davis Daniel has agreed to a minor league deal with the Cincinnati Reds. David Leisering Mon, Jan 26th | |

| Yusei Kikuchi will be shut down for the next 3 to 4 weeks due to left shoulder inflammation, according to Angels' manager Kurt Suzuki. Diego Sandoval Tue, May 5th | ||
| Former Los Angeles Times writer, Mike DiGiovanna reported that sources have told him Yusei Kikuchi (shoulder) is “gonna be out for several months, if not the whole season.” Ari Koslow Tue, May 5th | ||
| The Angels placed Yusei Kikuchi on the 15-day injured list with left shoulder inflammation. Ari Koslow Sun, May 3rd | ||
| Notes | ||
| Yusei Kikuchi remains a reliable but volatile fantasy arm entering 2026, best viewed as a back-end starter in mixed leagues. The underlying batted-ball profile was mostly stable, but a rising walk rate and middling WHIP capped his fantasy ceiling despite near-league-average run prevention. Kikuchi is still useful for innings and strikeouts, but with limited upside and increased ratio risk compared to prior seasons. He's best deployed as a matchup-dependent SP5 rather than a set-and-forget option. Kelly Kirby - FantasyPros | ||
