The Angels released RHP Hunter Strickland.

Fantasy Impact

Strickland could not make the Angels bullpen to open the season. He will likely seek another opportunity.

Veteran reliever Hunter Strickland has re-signed with the Los Angeles Angels on a minor league deal. The contract includes an invitation to spring training.

Fantasy Impact

Strickland is an 11-year veteran at the big league level and has posted a career ERA of 3.37 in 499 appearances. The righthander has pitched each of the last two seasons with the Angels and has a 3.30 ERA across 91 appearances. He did spend most of last season on the shelf with inflammation on his throwing shoulder and was limited to just 22 innings. If healthy, Strickland should have no problem being a consistent arm in the Angels' bullpen.

Angels right-hander Hunter Strickland's ailing right shoulder showed a significant strain but will not require surgery.

Fantasy Impact

Avoiding surgery gives Strickland a shot at returning in September of this season. The 36-year-old has been an effective arm for the Angels over the last two seasons, most recently posting a 3.27 ERA in 19 appearances before hitting the shelf this season.

The Angels transferred Hunter Strickland to the 60-day injured list.

The move opens a roster spot for the Angels. Strickland faces a lengthy absence after landing on the injured list earlier this week.
