On Monday, Chris Rodriguez was called back up to the LA Angels Major League roster.

He was set to make his first start of his career after looking good in the pen this season. In his 13 relief appearances, he gave up just eight earned runs in 19.2 IP.

He had been starting games in both AA and AAA after he was sent down the last time, and the Angels wanted to give him his chance at the Major League level this week.
