Barria, who has logged a 2.48 ERA over 36 1/3 innings in seven starts for the Angels this season, will be recalled from Salt Lake on Tuesday to face the Mariners at Safeco Field.

The 21-year-old right-hander is the logical candidate to fill the vacancy in the Angels' rotation left by the injured Shohei Ohtani, who was diagnosed with a Grade 2 sprain of the ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow and will be shut down for at least three weeks after receiving both platelet-rich plasma and stem-cell injections on Thursday in Los Angeles.
