McGuire was outrighted from the Angels' 40-man roster Friday.
McGuire was dealt to the Angels from Texas in mid-June and went on to make 17 appearances with Los Angeles in 2018, posting a disastrous 6.07 ERA and 1.69 WHIP with a 26:21 K:BB in 29.2 innings. This move will allow the team to free up another spot on the 40-man roster in order to protect a younger prospect from the Rule 5 draft.
