Kenny

Rosenberg

The 29-year-old hurler was terrific out of the Angels’ bullpen on Tuesday, allowing just one run on two hits over five strong innings against the Blue Jays. He wasn’t going to be available for several days though, so the Halos opted to swap him out for a fresh arm. Brock Burke will take his place in the Angels’ bullpen.

Rosenberg fortifies Los Angeles’ bullpen heading into Tuesday’s game against the Blue Jays. The 29-year-old lefty has compiled a lackluster 8.78 ERA, 1.73 WHIP and 8/5 K/BB ratio across 13 1/3 innings (three appearances, one start) this season for the Angels.

The 29-year-old hurler was clobbered for six runs over 3 1/3 innings in a losing effort against the Athletics on Thursday. He’ll continue to hone his craft at the Triple-A level for the time being until the Angels have another need for a spot starter.

Eight of the 14 balls in play against Rosenberg tonight were hard hit, which simply isn’t a very good ratio. He might soon return to Triple-A, though if the Angels shed pitching before the deadline and truly pack it in, perhaps they’ll keep him around.

Rosenberg has made two appearances out of the bullpen for the Angels this season, allowing seven runs in 10 innings out of the bullpen. Rosenberg worked exclusively as a starter at Triple-A Salt Lake this season, compiling a 3.74 ERA, 1.23 WHIP, and a 67/24 K/BB ratio over 77 innings. This will be his first big league start of the year.

Kochanowicz didn’t walk anyone in his MLB debut, but he allowed seven hits and struck out just one. After Kochanowicz exited, Kenny Rosenberg gave up six runs over six innings to finish the non-competitive game. One or both will probably be sent down tomorrow. They might as well bring back John Lackey and Scot Shields at this point... it’d certainly be more interesting than anything else they’re doing.

The 29-year-old southpaw will add bullpen depth and length for the Halos — at least for one day — as Davis Daniel was optioned to Triple-A on Wednesday. Rosenberg has worked exclusively as a starter at Triple-A Salt Lake this season, compiling a 3.74 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and a 67/24 K/BB ratio over 77 innings.

There are some pretty notable inclusions among the latest batch of cuts from Angels camp with Herget the likely headliner. The 30-year-old righty has made 92 appearances for the Halos over the last three years. Dozier was in camp on a minor league pact and figured to have a decent shot at making the season-opening roster in a bench role.

Doubles by Spencer Steer and Stuart Fairchild would bring a run across for the Reds in the first inning against Rosenberg. He worked around a single in a scoreless second inning before his day was done. The 28-year-old left-hander is a long shot to make the Opening Day roster with the Angels, but provides the team some organizational starting pitching depth.

Rosenburg entered the game in the third inning with the Angels in a one-run deficit. The 28-year-old struck out six, walked none, and allowed one hit across his five innings of work. The right-hander holds a 3.82 ERA, 1.48 WHIP, and 29/14 K/BB ratio over 33 innings (seven appearances) since he was recalled from Triple-A in early August.
