The Angels have released right-hander Taijuan Walker, who had signed a minor league deal with them on June 11th after being let go by the Phillies. In two starts at Triple-A, he posted a 4.91 ERA over 14 2/3 innings, continuing a trend of inefficiency that has seen him struggle since 2023. Although he’s a low-cost option due to the Phillies covering his salary, his chances for a major league return appear slim. Walker may seek to re-sign with the Angels or explore a transition to a relief role.
