ANAHEIM, Calif. -- The Los Angeles Angels have recalled right-hander Brooks Pounders and designated right-hander Kirby Yates for assignment.
The Angels made the latest moves to shore up their injury-plagued pitching staff Sunday. The team had eight pitchers on the disabled list just 18 games into the season.
Cam Bedrosian was the latest to be shelved this weekend, leaving Los Angeles without its top three relievers: Bedrosian, Huston Street and Andrew Bailey.
Los Angeles also traded outfielder Ryan LaMarre to the Oakland Athletics for cash considerations.
