    Angels' Andrew Wantz: Activated from injured list

    Andrew Wantz (elbow) was activated from the injured list and outrighted to Triple-A Salt Lake on Thursday.Wantz underwent a procedure on his elbow in mid-July, but it was not Tommy John surgery. Nevertheless, he was unable to return to the mound in 2024 after experiencing a setback. He'll presumably be ready for the start of spring training, which would roughly be in line with his initial recovery timetable.

    Andrew Wantz (elbow) recently had a setback , and it's not clear when (or if) he'll be able to pitch next season, per MLB.com.When it was initially clarified that Wantz's season-ending surgery wasn't Tommy John, the expectation was that he'd be ready to take the mound again for spring training in 2025. However, he's since suffered a setback, casting uncertainty about his outlook moving forward. Wantz pitched in only one big-league game this season, allowing one run on one hit while striking out three batters over 1.1 innings June 30 against the Tigers.

    Angels' Andrew Wantz: Avoids Tommy John surgery

    The season-ending elbow surgery Andrew Wantz required in July wasn't a Tommy John procedure, MLB.com reports.When the Los Angeles Angels organization announced that Wantz had season-ending elbow surgery, not many details were provided, leading to some speculation that he underwent a Tommy John procedure. Though the exact nature of the surgery still hasn't been clarified, the fact that it wasn't a Tommy John repair will shorten the right-hander's timeframe for a return. Wantz is currently rehabbing in Arizona and could be ready to pitch during spring training.

    Angels' Andrew Wantz: Gets season-ending surgery

    The Los Angeles Angels announced Saturday that Andrew Wantz underwent season-ending surgery on his right elbow, MLB.com reports.The club didn't provide many details on Wantz's procedure, but the prevailing assumption is that he underwent Tommy John surgery. Assuming that's the case, Wantz likely won't be ready to pitch again until late in the 2025 season, if not the start of the 2026 season. He appeared in just one game out of the big-league bullpen this season and made seven appearances (six starts) at Triple-A Salt Lake, where he turned in a 6.17 ERA and 1.65 WHIP over 23.1 innings. Set to turn 29 years old in October and likely at risk of missing the entire 2025 season, Wantz will likely be a non-tender candidate this offseason.

    Angels' Andrew Wantz: Promoted to majors

    The Los Angeles Angels recalled Andrew Wantz from Triple-A Salt Lake on Saturday.Wantz has spent the entire season in Triple-A, though he missed nearly two months due to a right forearm injury. Since returning from the IL, he's allowed nine runs (eight earned) in just six innings over three appearances. Despite his poor performance, he'll join the Halos as a replacement for Zach Plesac, who was optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding move. Six of Wantz's seven appearances in the minors this season have been as a starter, but he'll likely be deployed as a multi-inning reliever for the Angels, at least initially.

    Angels' Andrew Wantz: Makes return at Triple-A

    Andrew Wantz (forearm) has given up nine runs (eight earned) on 12 hits and seven walks while striking out 10 over six innings in his three appearances (two starts) since being activated from Triple-A Salt Lake's 7-day injured list June 12.Wantz missed just under two months of action due to a right forearm strain. Though he's ostensibly healthy again, Wantz has struggled mightily with his control since coming off the IL. He doesn't look to be a viable option to join the Los Angeles Angels during the upcoming week, even though the big club has two open spots in its rotation at the moment.

    Angels' Andrew Wantz: Sidelined with forearm injury

    Triple-A Salt Lake placed Andrew Wantz on its 7-day injured list April 19 with a right forearm injury, Taylor Blake Ward of TheSportingTribune.com reports.Wantz has worked almost exclusively as a reliever at the big-league level with the Los Angeles Angels over the previous three seasons, but he had been working out of the rotation at Salt Lake after being optioned to Triple-A coming out of spring training. The right-hander had gotten off to a solid start in his first four starts with Salt Lake with a 4.15 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 24:8 K:BB across 17.1 innings, but the forearm injury has halted any momentum Wantz might have built toward a possible promotion to the big leagues. It's unclear when Wantz might be ready to head out on a rehab assignment with one of the Angels' lower-level affiliates.
