Angels' Michael Petersen: Scrubbed from 40-man roster

The Angels designated Petersen for assignment Monday.

The transaction frees up a 40-man roster spot for Jake Eder, who was acquired via trade Monday. Petersen, 30, has made 16 relief appearances at the major-league level, collecting a 5.95 ERA and 14:11 K:BB over 19.2 innings.
