Angels Call Up Farris, DFA Lucchesi

About this episode

The Los Angeles Angels have called up left-hander Mitch Farris from Triple-A Salt Lake to face the White Sox in Chicago, replacing Joey Lucchesi who was designated for assignment. Farris, a 25-year-old southpaw, has a promising 2.08 ERA in four and one-third innings this season, despite struggling last year with the Angels. Lucchesi, a 32-year-old 65 free agent signee, has a dismal 13.50 ERA in three and one-third innings this year. The Angels are banking on Farris to stabilize their rotation against Chicagos lineup tonight.

0:00On April 29th, the Los Angeles Angels made a quick raster swap before facing the white socks in Chicago, calling a left-hander Mitch Ferris from, triple a salt lake and designating Joey Lucezy for a Simon. Ferris, a 25-year-old South Paul, is back for his second go-around this season after posting zero wins, zero losses, and a sharp 2.0. Eight earned run average over four and one-third innings in three games earlier this month. He struggled more last year with the Angels, going one in three with a 6.66 earned run average in five starts, but the team got him in a trade from the Atlanta Braves back in December of 2024. Lucezy, now 32 and 6-foot-five, signed as a free agent in April and tanked hard this year, zero and one with a 13.50. Earned run average in just three and one-third innings across five outings. That move clears space for fresh arms as the Angels push forward, betting on Ferris to steady the rotation against Chicago's lineup tonight.
