The Angels made the latest tweaks to their bullpen on Sunday, optioning Ty Buttrey and signing Noé Ramirez to a minor-league deal.
It’s a bit surprising, but the decision must be based on overall career experience because Buttrey has outperformed Ramirez up to this point in spring training.
2021 Spring Training Statistics:
- Buttrey (7 games): 7 IP 9 H 5 R 3 ER 4 BB 7 SO
- Ramirez (6 games): 6 IP 6 H 11 R 6 ER 4 BB 4 SO
Both pitchers played key roles in the Halos inconsistent bullpen last summer.
