Hector Neris: Opts for free agency
Hector Neris cleared waivers Friday and elected free agency, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.Neris gave up seven earned runs over 11.2 innings during his stint with the Astros before being DFA'd by the team Tuesday. Rather than accepting an outright assignment to Triple-A Sugar Land, the 36-year-old will now test his value in the open market. A major-league deal may be hard to come by, however, as he currently owns a 6.75 ERA and 1.69 WHIP through 26.2 innings between three different teams.

Angels' Hector Neris: DFA'd by Halos
The Los Angeles Angels designated Hector Neris for assignment Saturday.It's been a rough season for Neris, who was DFA'd by Atlanta in late March and then posted a 5.14 ERA over 21 outings (14 innings) with the Angels. The veteran reliever has shown some promising signs, though -- he has 19 punchouts in those 14 frames while recording eight holds, and he hasn't given up an earned run in six of his past seven appearances. Neris' removal from the roster made room for Jose Fermin to be called up from Triple-A Salt Lake.

Angels' Hector Neris: Tosses scoreless frame
Hector Neris (finger) struck out one during a scoreless inning in Monday's 4-3 victory over the Athletics.Neris has been dealing with a blister on his pitching hand since Saturday, so it was good to see him deliver a strong outing on the way to Monday's win. He got through the eighth inning with ease, firing seven of his nine pitches for strikes. The team will presumably check in on the right-hander Tuesday morning to see how he bounces back from Monday's relief appearance.

Angels' Hector Neris: Dealing with finger blister
Hector Neris suffered a right finger blister during his appearance against the Dodgers on Saturday and was held out of Sunday's series finale due to the issue, per MLB.com.The blister may help explain Neris' rough outing Saturday -- he gave up three runs on two walks and a hit while uncorking a wild pitch without retiring any batters. This doesn't appear to be a serious injury for the veteran reliever, but the Los Angeles Angels probably will opt to hold him out until the blister is healed enough to no longer affect his throwing. Neris joined the Angels on a minor-league deal in mid-April and had tossed five straight scoreless outings before his blow-up Saturday.

Hector Neris: Enters open market
Hector Neris elected free agency Wednesday.Neris was DFA'd by Atlanta after giving up five runs in one-plus innings during the first series of the season, and he'll now test his luck in free agency rather than accepting an outright assignment to Triple-A Gwinnett. The 35-year-old finished the 2024 regular season with a 4.10 ERA and 1.40 WHIP across 59.1 innings between the Astros and Cubs, though his uninspiring start to '25 may make other teams hesitant to offer him an MLB deal.
