US EditionAngels add relievers Drew Pomeranz, Jordan Romano
The Angels signed relievers Drew Pomeranz and Jordan Romano to low-risk, one-year deals worth $6 million combined to strengthen their bullpen for 2026.
- On Tuesday, the Los Angeles Angels signed left-handed reliever Drew Pomeranz and right-handed reliever Jordan Romano to one-year contracts for 2026, with Pomeranz earning $4 million and Romano $2 million.
- The club has pursued low-cost, upside-seeking signings, taking low-risk fliers to add pitching depth to the Los Angeles Angels’ roster this offseason.
- Pomeranz, 37, posted a 2.17 ERA with 57 strikeouts and 15 walks in 49 2/3 innings last season with the Chicago Cubs, and his career totals include a 50-60 record, 3.82 ERA, and 940 strikeouts over 908 innings.
- Uncertainty remains over Jordan Romano, 32-year-old right-hander, as his 8.23 ERA in 49 games this year makes his fit in the Angels bullpen unclear.
- Financially, the Angels spent less than $10 million on five players, while Grayson Rodriguez, Alek Manoah, and Vaughn Grissom did not appear in the majors in 2025.
