Former Cleveland Pitcher Signs With Angels
In this story:
Those who turned into the second half of a Cleveland Indians game during the 2021 MLB season may have seen Justin Garza on the mound in relief for the starting pitcher.
However, Garza is moving on from the Cleveland organization and signed a one-year split contract with the Los Angeles Angels. He was Cleveland's eighth-round pick in the 2015 MLB Draft but didn't make his Big League Debut until 2021.
In 2021, he appeared in 21 games posting a 4.71 ERA and a 1.57 WHIP in 28.2 innings of work. He didn't make an appearance with the team in 2022 and spent the entire season in Triple-A.
The Angels have been one of the most active teams early on this offseason trying to improve in any area that they can. While Garza was underwhelming in 2021, there were some signs of promise too. It's a low-risk, high reward-for Los Angeles.
