The Los Angeles Angels are adding a lot of interesting talent this offseason. While they’re not landing superstars like Kyle Tucker, Bo Bichette, Kyle Schwarber, or Dylan Cease, they’ve added a lot of underrated talent.

Their offseason moves have consisted of under-the-radar players who have struggled in recent years, but have shown very high upside when at their best. Their trade for Grayson Rodriguez might be the best example.

And now, deeper into the offseason, according to Chris Cotillo of Masslive.com, the Angels are closing in on a deal to sign former Milwaukee Brewers and Cincinnati Reds lefty reliever, Brent Suter.

“Free agent signing: Angels are closing in on a major league contract with veteran lefty Brent Suter, per sources,” Cotillo reports. “Another bullpen reinforcement for them.”

Suter is a 36-year-old left-handed relief pitcher. He’s spent the majority of his 10-year MLB career with the Brewers and the Reds, though he did spend one year with the Colorado Rockies in 2023.

In his big-league career, Suter has a 3.57 ERA across 348 games, 47 starts, and 83 game finishes. He’s not a closer by trade, evidenced by his three career saves.

But Suter is a solid depth reliever who can eat up innings. He’s pitched at least 65 innings the last five seasons, and has also gone as high as 101.1 innings in a season.

Across his big-league career, Suter has a 122 ERA+, which is a very solid mark, indicating he’s 22 percent better than the league average pitcher in his MLB career.

While his 101 ERA+ and 4.52 ERA in 48 games this past season for the Reds wasn’t the best, he’s still a solid reliever and worth signing to a free agent deal.

With Kenley Jansen signing with the Detroit Tigers, the Angels needed more bullpen help, and he will join a new-look bullpen alongside Kirby Yates, Robert Stephenson, Drew Pomeranz, Ben Joyce, Jordan Romano, and many others.
