Bradley was outrighted to Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday, per the MLB Transactions Log.
Bradley was booted from the 40-man roster Saturday and will now report to Triple-A after failing to draw any interest from around the league. He's tallied a 2.95 ERA and 0.99 WHIP with a 16:5 K:BB across 18.1 frames so far this season for the Jumbo Shrimp.

Marlins' Archie Bradley: Designated for assignment
Rotowire
Bradley was designated for assignment by the Marlins on Saturday, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
Bradley signed a minor-league deal with the Marlins in mid-April and reached the big-league club just over two months later. He's struggled to a 12.27 ERA in 7.1 innings of relief with the big-league club, so it's no surprised to see the team decide to move on. George Soriano was recalled to take his place on the roster.

Marlins' Archie Bradley: Selected from Jacksonville
Rotowire
The Marlins selected Bradley's contract from Triple-A Jacksonville on Tuesday, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
Bradley signed a minor-league deal with the Marlins in April and has performed very well since, logging a 2.95 ERA and 0.99 WHIP through 18.1 frames across nine appearances. He gives Miami a multi-inning relief option and will replace Huascar Brazoban, who was optioned to Jacksonville in a corresponding move.

Marlins' Archie Bradley: Gets MiLB deal from Miami
Rotowire
Bradley signed a minor-league contract with the Marlins on Wednesday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.
Bradley is coming off a 2022 campaign in which he missed a significant amount of time due to elbow and back injuries. When he was healthy, he was able to put up a 4.82 ERA and 1.29 WHIP through 18.2 innings. The 30-year-old reliever will presumably head to Triple-A Jacksonville and serve as organizational depth, though he will need to be added to the 40-man roster before he can contribute in the big leagues.

Angels' Archie Bradley: Activated from injured list
Rotowire
Bradley (elbow) was reinstated from the 60-day injured list Tuesday.
Bradley hasn't appeared in a game since June 25 due to a fracture in his right elbow. He made four rehab appearances with Triple-A Salt Lake, posting a 3.18 ERA and 1.06 WHIP over 5.2 innings of work. With the Angels out of the playoff picture, Bradley will likely be just another bullpen arm to help the team across the finish line.
Bradley (elbow) will start a rehab assignment Thursday with Triple-A Salt Lake, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.
The plan is for Bradley to make three rehab appearances before rejoining the big-league bullpen. Bradley, who has been out since June 25, has a 4.82 ERA, 1.29 WHIP, 15 strikeouts and two saves in 18.2 innings across 21 appearances this season.

Angels' Archie Bradley: Progresses to long toss
Rotowire
Bradley (elbow) has been cleared to take part in long toss and could return before the end of the season, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.
The Angels were concerned that Bradley may not be able to pitch again in 2022 after failing to begin a throwing program by mid-August, but it seems his recent progress has changed the outlook on his return. According to Bollinger, the team is now optimistic that Bradley will be activated from the 60-day injured list before the end of the regular season, though he'll still need to clear numerous hurdles to get there.

Angels' Archie Bradley: May not return this year
Rotowire
Bradley (elbow) has yet to start throwing and may not make it back this season, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.
Bradley has been out with a broken elbow since late June. Reports from earlier this week indicated he was nearly ready to begin a throwing program, but that still hasn't happened. It's unclear if there's been a setback or if the Angels have simply decided not to rush him back in a lost season.

Bradley fractured his right elbow during a team brawl against the Mariners on June 26.

Angels' Archie Bradley: Transferred to 60-day IL
Rotowire
Bradley (elbow) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Saturday.
Bradley's shift to the 60-day injured list doesn't come as a major surprise, as he'll be shut down from throwing for approximately four weeks after landing on the IL with a right elbow fracture Tuesday. The right-hander won't be eligible to return until at least late August, and a better idea of his timetable is unlikely to come into focus until he resumes throwing.

Angels' Archie Bradley: To IL with fractured elbow
Rotowire
Bradley was placed on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a right elbow fracture, Sam Blum of The Athletic reports.
According to Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register, Bradley will be shut down from throwing for four weeks before being allowed to start a throwing program, so he'll likely spend at least two months on the shelf. The veteran righty had been pitching quite well, logging a 2.08 ERA and 1.08 WHIP over his last 16 appearances, although he had just 10 strikeouts in 13 innings over that stretch.

Angels' Archie Bradley: Charged with loss Saturday
Rotowire
Bradley (0-1) took the loss against Seattle on Saturday, allowing three unearned runs on no hits and two walks while striking out one batter over two-thirds of an inning.
Bradley relieved starter Patrick Sandoval in the sixth inning and walked two of the first three batters he faced. An error by third baseman Tyler Wade loaded the bases, but Bradley was able to strike out Eugenio Suarez before being pulled for Jose Quijada. Quijada then allowed all three inherited runners to score, pinning the loss on Bradley. This was his first defeat of the campaign, but he's struggled with consistency, posting a 4.82 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 3.4 BB/9 across 18.2 innings.

Angels' Archie Bradley: Collects second save
Rotowire
Bradley earned a save against the Mariners in Game 2 of a doubleheader Saturday with a perfect inning of work.
Regular closer Raisel Iglesias pitched an inning and earned the win in the first game of the twin bill, with Jose Quijada earning the save in that contest. As such, manager Phil Nevin called on Bradley to close things out with Los Angeles up 3-0 in the ninth inning of the nightcap, and the veteran succeeded by retiring all three batters he faced on only six pitches. This was Bradley's first save since late April, and he shouldn't be expected to see frequent ninth-inning opportunities given Iglesias' firm grip on the closer role.

Angels' Archie Bradley: Back in action

Bradley (abdomen) was activated off the 10-day injured list Monday.
Bradley had been sidelined since late April due to an abdominal strain, but he's ready to go after making a single rehab appearance with Single-A Inland Empire. He struggled to a 7.27 ERA in eight outings prior to his injury, so the Angels will be hoping for better results from him upon his return.

Angels' Archie Bradley: Rehab assignment on tap
Rotowire
Bradley (abdomen) will begin a rehab assignment at Single-A Inland Empire on Saturday, Sam Blum of The Athletic reports.
Bradley threw a pair of bullpen sessions this week and is expected to throw an inning with the Angels' minor-league affiliate Saturday. He hasn't pitched in a game since April 29, so it's possible he'll require several rehab appearances prior to rejoining the major-league roster. However, Bradley will likely reclaim a high-leverage role in the Angels' bullpen once he's activated.

Rotowire
Bradley was placed on the 10-day injured list with a left abdominal strain Saturday, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
The right-hander struck out two in three innings while earning a save and two holds over his last three outings, but he'll now be sidelined for at least a week and a half due to his abdominal injury. Aaron Loup and Mike Mayers are candidates for increased setup duties in Bradley's absence.

Angels' Archie Bradley: Earns save
Rotowire
Bradley picked up the save, striking out one in a perfect ninth inning of a 7-6 win Sunday over Baltimore.
Bradley needed only six pitches to complete the frame and earn his first save of the season. The 29-year-old was called upon rather than closer Raisel Iglesias and got the job done. The righty lowered his season ERA to 9.45, recording his first save for Los Angeles. The closer role is firmly Iglesias' and this was nothing more than an isolated opportunity to close for Bradley as Iglesias received a day of rest.
