Hunter Strickland looked awful for the LA Angels this season.

After having a 1.69 ERA through his 13 games with the Tampa Bay Rays this year, Strickland posted a 9.95 ERA in his nine games with the Angels.

The Angels originally designated Strickland for assignment a week ago, but decided to trade him to the Milwaukee Brewers for cash on Saturday.

Trading Hunter Strickland was the best move possible for the LA Angels.
