Angels' Ryan Schimpf: Recalled from Triple-A
Ryan Schimpf was recalled from Triple-A Salt Lake on Wednesday, Bill Shaikin of the Los Angeles Times reports.Schimpf will take the roster spot of Nick Tropeano (shoulder), who was sent to the disabled list in a corresponding move. It could be a short stay with the big-league club for Schimpf, however, as the Los Angeles Angels will need to clear a roster spot prior to Thursday's game for Jaime Barria, who is scheduled to start. The 30-year-old Schimpf, who is 1-for-5 with a homer and a pair of walks in four major-league appearances this season, will provide a left-handed bat off the bench during his time with the Angels.

Angels' Ryan Schimpf: Clubs homer in start
Ryan Schimpf started at third base and went 1-for-2 with a pair of walks and a solo home run in Sunday's win over the Athletics.The slugging infielder also struck out, putting his "three true outcomes" skill set on full display in his first start of the season. Schimpf smacked 34 homers in 527 plate appearances over the last two years with the Padres, so his power is as real as it comes. He also batted .163 over that span, highlighting the major flaw that holds him back from being a viable everyday player. Ian Kinsler (groin) is expected back soon, which could result in Schimpf returning to Triple-A Salt Lake. Even if the 29-year-old sticks around, he would be used in backup role, limiting his fantasy value.

Angels' Ryan Schimpf: Traded to Angels
Ryan Schimpf was traded to the Los Angeles Angels on Saturday by the Braves, who received catcher Carlos Perez, Chris Cotillo of SB Nation reports. The club optioned Schimpf to Triple-A Salt Lake.Schimpf was stuck as a depth infielder in Atlanta, and despite the demotion, he may have a chance to break into a modicum of playing time while Ian Kinsler (groin) spends time on the disabled list. Even if he's recalled, such a role probably wouldn't last long enough for the strikeout- and flyball-inclined Schimpf to earn much fantasy interest outside of AL-only leagues.

Braves' Ryan Schimpf: Optioned to Triple-A
Ryan Schimpf was optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett on Sunday.Schimpf was dealt to the Atlanta Braves earlier this month after being designated for assignment by the Rays. He made eight spring training appearances with his new club over the past two weeks but went 0-for-16 with 11 strikeouts. He'll begin the season in the minor leagues and will likely require an injury at the major-league level to work his way back up to the bigs in the early going.
