Angels Sign David Carpenter To Minors Deal

By Jeff Todd | May 13, 2016 at 5:14pm CDT

The Angels have signed veteran righty David Carpenter away from the Bridgeport Bluefish, the indy league club recently announced. As Baseball America’s Matt Eddy notes on Twitter, there are two right-handed relievers by that name, and this signing means that both have now been with the Halos.

Carpenter, 30, has already made one Triple-A appearance at Salt Lake City, notching two strikeouts. With Bridgeport, he had allowed just two unearned runs in eight frames. Carpenter surrendered five hits and four walks while punching out ten batters in that brief stretch.

Health is the main concern with Carpenter. He was limited to 24 1/3 innings last season with the Yankees and Nationals after providing the Braves with two consecutive solid campaigns. Carpenter was cut loose by two clubs this spring after failing to show enough, but he’s had plenty of success in the past and could certainly be an intriguing addition if he can return to form.

      Yeah, this minor signing signifies that the Angels are lost as an organization…

      They’ve been ravaged by the injury bug and were a fringe playoff team to begin with. Assuming decent health next year and with two big contracts coming off the books I think LAA could be a very good ball club.

      Every team buys other teams’ leftovers. If you’re gonna troll, at least be good at it.

    For the Angels this is David Carpenter No. 2.

      They were both with the Braves too. I think Atlanta traded one to the Yanks and then signed the other one not long after. You think one could go by Dave or even a middle name to lessen the confusion. MLB needs to do what Hollywood does. If someone already has your name, then you gotta make up a stage name or use initials or something.
