The Angels are acquiring right-hander Roansy Contreras in a trade with the Pirates, per Alex Stumpf of MLB.com. Pittsburgh designated Contreras for assignment five days ago.
Contreras debuted as a 21-year-old in the 2021 season and tossed 3 shutout innings, then went on to make 18 starts and another three relief appearances for the 2022 Pirates. In all, he pitched 98 innings with a 3.67 ERA, 21.4% strikeout rate and 9.5% walk rate in the majors — all before celebrating his 23rd birthday.
Additionally, Angels reinstated INF Luis Rengifo from the IL. Following last night’s game, optioned INF Niko Goodrum and RHP Davis Daniel to Triple-A.
