José Soriano comes up to take the bullpen spot of Silseth, who will become a starter in Triple-A after the Angels feel trying him as a reliever hasn’t worked
HOUSTON — The Angels are changing course with Chase Silseth again.“With Chase, you just kind of watched the process of coming out of the ‘pen the last few times and I’m not sure he just looked the part, comfortable,” Angels manager Phil Nevin said.
Silseth had a 5.30 ERA in 18 2/3 big-league innings, including a 4.11 mark in 15 1/3 innings as a reliever.He reached the big leagues last year – the first player from the 2021 draft to make it – and showed some promise as a starter. He was a candidate to start this spring before going to Triple-A. So the Angels moved him again, believing he could be valuable working in high-leverage relief spots. After pitching, he allowed runs in each of the next three, with his velocity at times dipping.Now, all of that seems to be over.Ben Joyce emerge as a weapon out of the bullpen“I just think is best suited in the starting rotation,” Nevin said. “It was something we tried.
This season at Double-A, he had a 4.24 ERA with 31 strikeouts and 16 walks in 23 1/3 innings. Over his final eight games in the minors, he allowed two runs in 8 1/3 innings, with 12 strikeouts.
