Jake Eder Acquired By The Angels
The Los Angeles Angels have acquired pitching prospect Jake Eder from the Chicago White Sox in exchange for cash. The lefty was subsequently optioned to Triple-A Salt Lake. The former fourth-round draft pick was once a promising prospect, but underwent Tommy John surgery in 2021, causing him to miss the rest of that season and all of 2022. Since then, the southpaw has logged a 6.52 ERA, 1.68 WHIP, and a 12.8 percent K-BB% over 38 starts. He's still got solid strikeout stuff but the command has been a problem, owning a career 11.5 percent walk rate in the minors. He'll provide the Angels with some starting pitching depth in the minors, but remains off the fantasy radar at this point.
