The Los Angeles Angels acquired veteran relievers Luis Garcia and Andrew Chafin from the Washington Nationals to strengthen their bullpen as they aim to end their postseason drought, trading minor leaguers Jake Eder and Sam Brown in the process.
The Angels acquired pitchers Andrew Chafin and Luis García from the Nationals in a trade, sending Jake Eder and Sam Brown to Washington, as part of their efforts to bolster their bullpen and improve playoff chances, though their prospects remain slim.
The Washington Nationals placed pitcher Andrew Chafin on the 15-day injured list due to a right hamstring strain, with his return uncertain but likely minimal. Chafin, who has a 3.18 ERA this season, is a key reliever and his absence could impact the team's trade deadline plans, especially if his injury is not severe.
The Milwaukee Brewers are reportedly interested in acquiring left-handed reliever Andrew Chafin from the Arizona Diamondbacks before the Trade Deadline. Chafin, who has a 4.19 ERA this season, could provide bullpen reinforcements for the Brewers. While his ERA may not be impressive, Chafin has a better FIP and SIERA, and his high BABIP could benefit from the Brewers' strong defense. The 33-year-old pitcher would offer another left-handed option for the Brewers and could be a valuable addition for this season and potentially next season as well.
The Arizona Diamondbacks rallied from an early deficit to beat the Kansas City Royals 5-4, with pinch-hitter Nick Ahmed hitting the go-ahead and eventual game-winning run in the bottom of the eighth. D-backs lefty Andrew Chafin also made a top-10 play in the ninth inning to secure the win. Left-handed pitcher Tommy Henry had a bumpy first start of his 2023 season, allowing three runs on four hits and four walks to one strikeout across 73 pitches. The Diamondbacks were able to garner eight walks off Royals pitching, which is a big improvement considering where Arizona ranks in that department.
