Baseball player Tyler Anderson of the Angels has been added to the injured list due to a strained abdominal muscle.
Los Angeles Angels Sign Right-Hander Jose Ureña as Tyler Anderson Heads to the Injured List
In a move aimed at bolstering their pitching rotation, the Los Angeles Angels have signed right-hander Jose Ureña. The signing comes as Tyler Anderson, the team's left-hander, has been placed on the 15-day injured list due to a strained left oblique.
Anderson, who has been struggling this season with a 2-8 record and a 4.56 ERA in 26 starts, pitched on Friday against the Astros. During that game, he scattered five hits across five scoreless innings. However, the pitcher reported feeling discomfort, which has led to his injury.
The 33-year-old Ureña, who was designated for assignment by the Twins on Aug. 23, will take Anderson's spot on the roster. Ureña has spent time with the Mets, Blue Jays, and Dodgers this season, and his stint with the Angels marks the 11th team he has been with in his 11-year career.
Ureña posted a 4.58 ERA in four games with three starts for the Twins. His exact ERA for the season is not specified in the article. The Angels have not disclosed the length of Ureña's contract with the team.
Anderson is unsure if the injury will keep him out for the rest of the season. He mentioned that he had a similar injury to his front side oblique about 10 years ago.
Ureña's exact role in the Angels' pitching rotation remains to be seen. The team will be hoping that his addition can help turn their season around, as they currently find themselves in a tough position in the standings.
