The Angels will have two right-handed pitchers undergo Tommy John Surgery next week, as Gerardo Reyes and non-roster invitee Brendan McCurry will miss the 2021 season.
Earlier this week, Reyes was outrighted from the Angels’ 40-man roster, dropping their number to 39 players. He was dealing with a UCL sprain in his pitching elbow during the spring, so now the move makes more sense.
Reyes was acquired from the Padres last season in exchange for Jason Castro. However, Reyes never saw the field for the Angels. Now there’s a solid chance he’ll never suit up for them.
