Los Angeles Angels

Ben Joyce

With the injury, Joyce finishes the season with a 4.11 ERA, 1.11 WHIP, five saves and three blown saves in 15.1 innings across 16 games. The Angels recalled Trevor Martin from Triple-A Salt Lake in a corresponding move Thursday.

George Klassen

SP

While Klassen's bullpen sessions have been going well, the Angels have no reason to rush him back at this stage. Klassen made four starts in August in his return to the big club, posting an encouraging 2.01 ERA and 1.21 WHIP over 22.1 innings. He should compete for a spot in the starting rotation in spring training, health permitting.

Nolan Schanuel

Schanuel was cleared to begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Salt Lake last weekend, but he appeared in just one game Sunday and hasn't played since. He rejoined the team Friday to undergo further testing and receive treatment, and although the results of his latest tests are unknown, manager Kurt Suzuki said that the 24-year-old will most likely be shut down for the year. Vaughn Grissom is expected to continue working as the Angels' primary first baseman for the rest of the regular season.

Kyren Paris

Paris has slashed .307/.427/.554 with 13 homes runs and 16 stolen bases across 288 plate appearances through 62 games since getting promoted to Triple-A Salt Lake on June 9. The 24-year-old got a run of 44 games for the Angeles in 2025 when he slashed .190/.266/.381 with six home runs and seven stolen bases across 139 plate appearances. He will look to improve upon that in September and may see action at second base, shortstop, left field or center field.

Samy Natera Jr.

Natera was on the 15-day injured list due to lower back spasms that he started getting bothered by Aug. 15. The southpaw began a rehab assignment with Single-A Cucamonga on Friday and also made an appearance Sunday. Through the two games, the 26-year-old tossed two scoreless innings on zero hits, a walk and a strikeout.
