Los Angeles Angels sign reliever Fernando Rodney
From AP-
Reliever Fernando Rodney signed a two-year, $11 million deal with the Los Angeles Angels yesterday.
The 32-year-old right-hander spent his first seven major league seasons with the Detroit Tigers, including the last two years as their closer. He converted 37 of 38 save opportunities last season, pitching a career-best 75[0xb7] innings.
Rodney is a very good relief pitcher. In light of his talent and the terms of their contract with him, I see this as a very low risk move for the Angels.
