AL West Notes: Rangers, Miranda, Sipp, Bedrosian

By Steve Adams | April 10, 2018 at 9:53pm CDT

The Rangers announced tonight that second baseman Rougned Odor (left hamstring strain) and right-hander Doug Fister (right hip strain) have both been placed on the 10-day disabled list. In their place, the team has activated reliever Tony Barnette from the DL and recalled catcher/infielder Isiah Kiner-Falefa from Triple-A Round Rock. There’s no indication that either injury is considered to be long-term, with both Odor and Fister eligible to return from the DL on April 20. Kiner-Falefa will be making his big league debut the first time he gets into a game; the former fourth-round pick hit .288/.350/.390 through 569 trips to the plate in Double-A last season.

Some more AL West news…

  • Lefty Ariel Miranda will remain the Mariners’ fifth starter for the time being, tweets Ryan Divish of the Seattle Times. He’ll take the ball on April 17 when the fifth spot in the rotation next comes up, Divish notes, rather than right-hander Erasmo Ramirez, who is working his way back from a lat strain. However, the team doesn’t want to rush Ramirez back and will keep him on a slower progression while entrusting Miranda with a larger role. The 29-year-old Miranda is no stranger to the Seattle rotation, having made 39 starts for the M’s over the past two seasons after being acquired in a one-for-one swap that sent Wade Miley to Baltimore.
  • The Astros announced today that they placed left-hander Tony Sipp on the 10-day DL and recalled righty James Hoyt from Triple-A in his place. (MLB.com’s Brian McTaggart first reported that Sipp would hit the DL.) With Sipp on the shelf, the Astros are going with an all-right-handed bullpen for the foreseeable future, though the ’Stros do have options in that regard if they decide to change course. Lefties Buddy Boshers and Reymin Guadan are both on the 40-man roster and both pitching for Triple-A Fresno.
  • The Angels are keeping an eye on Cam Bedrosian’s velocity, writes Jeff Fletcher of the Orange County Register. The struggling setup man, however, insists that he’s not injured, though he acknowledges that the drop from an average of 96 mph to 93 mph on his fastball is an issue. Bedrosian feels that he developed some bad mechanical tendencies upon returning from a groin strain last season and is trying to get back to his old delivery. Pitching coach Charles Nagy noted that the dip in velocity is a “concern,” though Bedrosian also attributes his early results to simply not locating his pitches effectively.

    Wade Miley acquired December 2015 for Carson Smith. Miley traded to Baltimore July 2016 for Ariel Miranda. Miley a free agent this past off season, signed with Milwaukee. Ariel Miranda made the most starts on the Mariners last season. Carson Smith has pitched a total of 16 games for Boston since the trade. Baseball is weird…..

      The fact that Wade Miley for Carson smith wasn’t an absolute trade rape from Boston is probably the weirdest part. Would’ve bet big on that.

    Saw Kiner-Falefa last year in Corpus Christi. He was all over the field. SS one day, Behind the plate the next and 2B the following day. Played with high energy. Must be in the water in Hawaii , same energy as Victorino

      How pumped are you to see Whitely pitch in CC after he’s done serving his suspension? I didn’t get to see him pitch last year

        Was Forrest suspended 50 games for performance enhancing drugs? Or something else?

    Bedrosian mr “Future angels closer” bro chill, your old “Old delivery” was trash, how about you try something else? Anything just stop being such garbage, your not your dad, I hope you get traded for some buckets of BP balls.

      After ‘16 it looked like Bedrosian was going to be a stud closer. I can understand the patience. He was still roughly league average even if it wasn’t what you hoped for.

      Yea, what are you talking about Halo Fan? He had a 4 month period right before the blood clots that he ran a sub 1.00 era and K’d 2 an inning. Are you thinking of Mike Fetters? You’re probably thinking of Mike Fetters.

        A Mike Fetters reference makes Lazorko happy.

      Pretty good numbers with that old delivery. Probably why he’s referring to it.

      Wow really “halofan20”? Actual Halo Fans don’t bash players when they’re down. Bedrosian was lights out before his injuries and is trying to get back to form.

      Why do angels fans not like bedrosian… blows my mind. Once he fixes his issues and gets that velocity back to where it was he is a very good bullpen piece
