Former Los Angeles Angels pitcher signs minor league deal with the Orioles.
Former Los Angeles Angels pitcher Julio Teherán has signed with the Baltimore Orioles, according to Jon Heyman. Teherán will now join the Orioles, who have the third best record in the American League (38-20). The Orioles are a top team in the league, but their bullpen lacked depth.
Teherán began the season with the New York Mets, appearing in one game and allowing four earned runs over 2.2 innings. He was then scheduled for assignment, but chose free agency instead. Teherán signed a minor league contract with the Chicago Cubs and played for their Triple-A affiliate before opting out on June 1.
Teherán, 33, began his major league career with the Atlanta Braves in 2011 and played for them until 2019. He had his most consistent seasons with the Braves, making two All-Star selections in 2014 and 2016.
Following his tenure with the Braves, Teherán signed a one-year contract with the Angels. The right-hander had a dismal time with the Angels, posting a 10.05 ERA and surrendering 35 earned runs in nine starts.
Following the season with the Angels, Teherán joined the Detroit Tigers before moving on to the Atlantic League of Professional Baseball and the Mexican League in 2022. He then played in the minor leagues for the San Diego Padres until making his major league debut with the Milwaukee Brewers in 2023. Now he has his next chance with the Orioles.
