Angels' Angel Felipe: Inks MiLB deal with Angels
Felipe signed a minor-league contract with the Angels on Wednesday, Taylor Blake Ward of TheSportingTribune.com reports.
Felipe was released by the Athletics earlier this month, two days after he underwent Tommy John surgery. Unlike the Athletics, the Angels are willing to wait out his rehab in hopes he can contribute to their bullpen at some point in 2025. Felipe held a 4.20 ERA and 19:13 K:BB over 15 innings during his brief time with Oakland in 2023.

Felipe was placed on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a sprained right elbow, Martin Gallegos of MLB.comreports.

Athletics' Angel Felipe: Takes first loss Monday
Felipe (1-1) took the loss against the Cardinals on Monday despite also being credited with his fourth hold, allowing three earned runs on three walks over one-third of an inning. He struck out one.
Felipe entered the game in the seventh inning with a 5-3 lead, but he set up bullpen mate Francisco Perez with quite a jam by issuing walks to Paul Goldschmidt, Andrew Knizner and Tyler O'Neill around a Nolan Arenado strikeout. Felipe was subsequently charged with three runs and the loss when all of those runners crossed the plate after his exit, his first big-league defeat in 14 appearances. The right-hander has now been charged with five runs overall over his last five appearances, although all have come within three of outings in that span.

Felipe (1-0) earned the win in Wednesday's 6-5 win over the Red Sox, striking out two over 1.2 hitless innings.
Felipe relieved Lucas Erceg in the sixth inning, striking out a pair of Red Sox to strand the tying run on second base. The 25-year-old Felipe then set the Red Sox down in order in the seventh en route to his first MLB victory.

Padres' Angel Felipe: Moves off 40-man roster
The Padres designated Felipe for assignment Sunday.
After joining the Padres in January 2022 as a minor-league free agent, Felipe earned a spot on the 40-man roster heading into the 2023 campaign after he turned in a 3.63 ERA while striking out 84 batters and recording 14 saves across 62 innings between Triple-A El Paso and Double-A San Antonio. The 25-year-old right-hander has taken a major step back in 2023, however, as he pitched to a 6.20 ERA, 1.82 WHIP and 39:18 K:BB in 24.2 innings with El Paso before the Padres dropped him from the 40-man roster. He'll now be exposed to waivers, but if he goes unclaimed, Felipe will remain in the organization and continue to work out of the El Paso bullpen.
