The Angels designated Wade Meckler for assignment.
Fantasy Impact

Wade Meckler has been claimed off waivers by the Angels after being designated for assignment by the Giants last month.
Fantasy Impact
Meckler, an eighth-round pick by the Giants out of Oregon State in 2022, is a prototypical contact hitter. He made the climb all the way to San Francisco in 2023 and hit .232 in 20 games with the Giants that season. However, he has not played in the majors since. Meckler slashes .315/.410/.439 in 1,157 plate appearances in the minors. He has hit only 17 career home runs but has a 13.1% walk rate and just a 16.7% strikeout rate. Meckler is projected to battle for a spot on the Angels' opening day roster and, at the very least, would open the season in Triple-A.

Fantasy Impact
Meckler loses his spot on the Giants 40-man roster. He could draw some interest on waivers.
The San Francisco Giants optioned Wade Meckler to Triple-A Sacramento on Friday.
Fantasy Impact
Meckler displayed great patience at the plate this spring, posting a .382 OBP, but the Giants have elected to send the 24-year-old to the minors. This move will allow him to get regular at-bats, and he could earn a call-up later in the season.
