Angels' Blake Parker: Claimed off waivers

Parker was claimed off waivers by the Angels on Wednesday.

Analysis:

Parker was designated for assignment by the Yankees as they cleared a spot on the 40-man roster, and the Angels saw him as a useful addition. He posted a 4.96 ERA (3.94 FIP) with a 15:8 K:BB in 16.1 innings out of the Yankees bullpen this year.
