Angels Place Matt Moore On Injured List, Select Ryan Miller

By Steve Adams | August 27, 2024 at 2:49pm CDT

The Angels announced Tuesday that they’ve selected the contract of right-hander Ryan Miller from Triple-A Salt Lake. In a pair of corresponding moves, the Halos placed lefty Matt Moore on the 15-day injured list and transferred Mike Trout from the 15-day IL to the 60-day IL.

Moore exited his most recent appearance due to an elbow issue. The Angels have not yet commented on the severity of the issue, nor did they even list a specific injury in their formal announcement of today’s transaction. It’s been a tough year for the 35-year-old veteran, who’s worked to a 5.03 ERA as his strikeout rate, walk rate and velocity have all trended in the wrong direction.

From 2022-23, Moore sat 94 mph with his heater and pitched to a 2.20 ERA in 126 2/3 innings, striking out 27.4% of his opponents against a 10.2% walk rate (including a career-best 6.9% walk rate last year). In 2024, however, his average fastball has dipped to 93 mph, and Moore has set down just 19.5% of his opponents on strikes while issuing free passes to 12.4% of batters faced — the second-worst mark of his big league career.

Miller, 28, will be making his big league debut more than six years after being selected by the Diamondbacks in the sixth round of the 2018 draft. He joined the Angels via the minor league phase of last year’s Rule 5 Draft and has pitched quite well. In 62 1/3 innings, he’s worked to a 2.45 ERA with a strong 24.6% strikeout rate against an excellent 5.6% walk rate. Miller has kept the ball on the ground at a 40.9% clip that’s not far below league average and yielded only 1.01 homers per nine frames pitched.

    Another scenario that has no impact in the life of an Angels fan…all of it is inconsequential.

    The Angels transferred Trout to the 60 day IL? Glad to know Perry is on top of things.

    On pace for the most losses in over 40 years, the second worst system in baseball, and his quick move to put Trout on the 60 day IL to save all those heralded youngsters a 40 man roster spot.

    So glad the team responded so positively to his extension. Hard to believe this team is in last place behind the A’s.

    Angels team is tragic – They just have not used money well and have a HOF rotting. Such bad decisions there.

    Matt Moore was such a a mentor to the youth too. Lol. With the pick up of Cueto, why is it always the mid season old washed up free agent veteran pickup that the Angels tout as being a “mentor to the youth” or “a clubhouse leader”. Shouldn’t they try to get these guys BEFORE the season starts? moustakaas, pillar, Cueto, etc have been the best clubhouse leaders over the last several yrs which says a lot about team leadership or the types of players Minasian prefers: aloof, distracted,

      Devo, when you factor in the minor leagues, this is likely the worst Angel team ever,

      How Perry got an extension is beyond me.
