Angels Make Slew of Roster Moves Saturday to Replace Jo Adell & Ben Joyce
Your Los Angeles Angels were able to put together a nice, all-around performance against the Seattle Mariners on Friday that saw Mickey Moniak, Mike Trout, Shohei Ohtani and others step up big-time. LA is currently on a five-game winning streak and will look to extend to six for the first time this year.
However, the Halos' front office had some big decisions to make. First up, there was an open spot in the bullpen due to Ben Joyce being sidelined with a mysterious hand injury. He had to be pulled out in his first inning on Friday due to what he described as a tingling sensation he felt in his hand.
Joyce had just been recently called up and had started to find his rhythm so this was unfortunate but LA knew they needed to make a move quick and Gerardo Reyes (Veteran LA Reliever) has been added to Saturday's lineup.
Reporter noticed Reyes' presence in the locker room right away.
Jo Adell had an electric start to his 2023 career with the Angels a couple of days ago when he recorded the hardest-hit home run by any player this year in his first at-bat for the team.
However, he was called up because Hunter Renfroe went on paternity leave as he welcomed in his newborn daughter (Congratulations Hunter!) and now he will be returning to the lineup.
Renfroe obviously is getting his spot back and Adell's locker was removed from the clubhouse.
"Jo Adell no longer has a locker and Hunter Renfroe is back."

Let's see how LA fares with the addition of a new face and a key player back in the mix!
