The Los Angeles Angels lose Hisanori Takahashi on waivers to the Pirates
The Los Angeles Angels have lost 37-year old lefty reliever Hisanori Takahashi on waivers to the Pittsburgh Pirates. He pitched in 42 games (0 starts) for the Angels this year and he was 0-3 with a 4.93 ERA and a 1.17 WHIP. Takahashi pitched in 156 games (12 starts) in his three years with the Angels and he was 14-12 with 10 saves, a 3.80 ERA and a 1.25 WHIP. This could wind up hurting the Angels down the road, as Takahashi isn’t that bad of a pitcher.
