The Angels released Ramirez on Tuesday. Ramirez had been included in the Angels' 60-man roster pool and was throwing regularly at the team's alternate training site, but a callup to the big club never came for the veteran reliever. The right-hander is now free to pursue opportunities with other organizations.

Ramirez will be part of the Angels' 60-man roster. Ramirez, who is not on the 40-man roster, was signed by the Angels to a minor-league deal in December. He appeared 22 times with Cleveland and Toronto last season, posting a combined 5.40 ERA and 1.64 WHIP in 25 innings. He is on the roster simply to provide depth and is unlikely to offer any fantasy value in 2020.

Ramirez signed a minor-league contract with Los Angeles on Friday, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports. Ramirez pitched in 22 games a season ago across stops with Cleveland and the Blue Jays, posting a 5.40 ERA and 1.64 WHIP with a 24:15 K:BB over 25 innings of relief work. He'll be tasked with earning a spot on the big-league roster during spring training, though even if he begins the year in Triple-A, he could surface in the majors at some point during the season.

Ramirez cleared waivers and elected free agency Wednesday, Mike Wilner of Sportsnet 590 The Fan reports. Ramirez recorded a 5.40 ERA this season in 25 innings for Cleveland and Toronto. The 30-year-old owns a career 4.46 ERA over parts of six seasons, meaning he's likely to keep finding work but is unlikely to pitch in a high-leverage role.

Toronto designated Ramirez for assignment Sunday. The 30-year-old righty reliever was bumped off the 40-man roster to make room for another bullpen arm in Ryan Tepera (elbow), who was reinstated from the 60-day injured list. Over 22 appearances between the Indians and Blue Jays this season, Ramirez has posted a 5.40 ERA and 1.64 WHIP across 25 innings.
