Angels’ Robert Stephenson Out for MLB Season with Elbow Injury After $33M Contract

The good thing about the Angels is that they’re never going to be good
They paid $11m/yr for a reliever with a career ERA over 4 and while he had a good ERA in the low 2’s last year he only threw 38 innings… If they got 50 innings out of him this year that’s $220k/inning. That seems uh, steep. That’s $40m/year for a starter throwing 180 innings.
