Brennan Boesch: Designated For Assignment

The Angels designated Boesch for assignment Tuesday.

Analysis:

Boesch clubbed 25 homers in 95 games with Triple-A Salt Lake this season, but he hit just .227/.239/.364 upon his return to the major league team in September, resulting in his absence from the ALDS roster. The 29-year-old lefty has plenty of pop, which alone should make him intriguing to teams this offseason, though he's likely best suited for a reserve role.
