Aaron Loup Stats

The Los Angeles Angels placed left-hander Aaron Loup (shoulder) on the 15-day injured list on Friday after he felt something in his shoulder after pitching against the Tampa Bay Rays earlier this week on Sept. 19. His season is now over after the 35-year-old southpaw reliever recorded a 6.10 ERA with 45 strikeouts in 48 2/3 innings this year. The Angels hold a team option on Loup for next year, but they are likely to pay a $2 million buyout on his contract and make him a free agent. Loup had a save and nine holds for the Halos in 2023. Pitcher Davis Daniel was recalled from Triple-A Salt Lake to take Loup's spot on the active roster.

Los Angeles Angels reliever Aaron Loup (hamstring) has been activated from the 15-day injured list. This was the final roster move the Angels made in an attempt to shore up their bullpen. They optioned three arms to Triple-A and selected the contracts of two others so Loup's activation evens things out. The 35-year-old lefty has been out since early May with a hamstring strain and struggled mightily before hitting the shelf. He owns a rough 7.00 ERA, 2.11 WHIP, and 8:5 K/BB ratio over nine innings (11 appearances) on the season. He can be left on the waiver wire.

Los Angeles Angels reliever Aaron Loup is set to land on the injured list with a hamstring injury. The veteran southpaw said he injured his hamstring covering third base on a Paul Goldschmidt double in Thursday's series finale in St. Louis against the Cardinals. It's been a tough go for one of the game's more reliable lefty relievers over the last decade as Loup owns a 7.00 ERA through his first 11 appearances of the season. However, he also sports a 3.92 FIP while his .412 BABIP is sure to come back to earth in a hurry. Walks have been a key issue with an uncharacteristic 10.2% BB%, another figure that will surely shrink considering his 7.3% career mark.
