The Los Angeles Angels designated reliever Mike Baumann for assignment on Friday, marking his fourth DFA of the season.
Now that he's heading for waivers, other MLB teams will have a chance to claim him, but since he has more than two years of service time, he’ll need to be placed on a 40-man roster.
Seattle held onto him until July 19 and then traded him to the San Francisco Giants three days later. The Giants DFA’d him five days later and then Baumann had an outstanding season in 2023 when the Orioles clinched the American League East title. He posted a 10-1 record with a 3.76 ERA across 60 appearances, striking out 61 and walking 33 over 64.2 innings.
