The Los Angeles Angels have designated for Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Ian Anderson for assignment, according to the team's transaction page. The move comes as part of a shuffle the Angels are making to their pitching staff.
Anderson had seven appearances for the Angels. He allowed 12 earned runs (11.57 ERA) over 9 1/3 innings pitched and had a .386 opponent's average and a 2.57 WHIP.
The last six or weeks have not been kind to the 26-year-old right hander. He went from being projected to be in the Braves roation to being traded to being DFA'd.
