The Los Angeles Angels have recalled relievers Eduardo Paredes and Taylor Cole, while optioning infielder Nolan Fontana and sending reliever Jake Jewell to the disabled list. Jewell bent his ankle awkwardly in Wednesday's game and was carried off on a stretcher. Paredes has thrown 13 1/3 innings on the year, with a 7.43 ERA and a 2.03 WHIP. Neither Paredes or Cole figure to see any high leverage roles, and thus should not be owned in fantasy.
Angels reliever Eduardo Paredes earned the save on Tuesday in the Angels extra-inning win. Blake Parker was one of the few relievers still left, and he was not available after pitching a lot in recent games. This is likely not a pattern, although it further proves that trusting any Angels reliever to get consistent save opportunities is foolish. Parker, Cam Bedrosian and Keynan Middleton appear to be the most likely beneficiaries going forward, but none should be trusted outside of very deep formats or owners desperate for saves.
