[Nightengale] The Los Angeles Angels bolster their bullpen by signing veteran reliever Luis Garcia to a one-year, $4.25 million contract. He spent the past two seasons with the San Diego Padres.

Definitely the pitcher I was hoping for, dunno about you guys
Will be 37 years old. Last year had a 4.07 ERA and 1.39 WHIP. Seriously, how does this get over $4M?????
Guessing there is something Perry likes in him? Definitely didn’t have good numbers
The former padre bullpen pitcher we all wanted
Classic Perry signing. 26th percentile strikeout rate.
Same Luis Garcia we had right? I am always confused because there are other Luis Garcias out there that didn’t look like him and were better lol
I was worried we wouldn’t be able to replace Loup
Welcome back Luis!
💀
Aaron Loup 2.0
Angels Legend Luis Garcia
what the fuck is perry cooking 🧑🍳🔥
I’m good with it
$4.25 million guaranteed seems like a lot for a 37-year old pitcher with a career 4.05 ERA (and really struggled last season). Seems like a kid making the league minimum could produce similar numbers.
Barry Enright will really be a magician if he can get something out of his velocity
find someone that loves you like minasian loves crappy relievers
The best cooks use the strangest ingredients
Honestly not a bad deal. Let’s be real here, you can’t get much for 4 million anymore. The Angels could use another power arm. Wasn’t great last year (but also not terrible) but was really good 2021-2022.
As a Padre and Angles fan, not excited about this one… Garcia has a chance to bounce back after a terrible performance last season but $4.25M is not worth the risk
Who fucking cares this team sucks
Sometimes you just need arms to go the distance
