Angels' Sam Bachman: Officially recalled
The Angels recalled Bachman from Triple-A Salt Lake on Friday.
As expected, Bachman will join the 26-man roster in place of Shaun Anderson, who was designated for assignment. Bachman hasn't appeared in an MLB game since 2023, and he's logged a 0.79 ERA with an 11:9 K:BB across 11.1 innings this season with Salt Lake City.

Angels' Sam Bachman: Call-up expected Friday
The Angels are expected to call up Bachman ahead of Friday's game at Baltimore, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
Bachman started the season on the injured list due to thoracic outlet syndrome and was optioned to Triple-A Salt Lake City once he was activated in mid-May. He has dominated at Triple-A, allowing one earned run in 11.1 innings with 11 strikeouts, although he's also issued nine walks. He's expected to take Shaun Anderson's spot in the Angels' bullpen.

Angels' Sam Bachman: Back from IL, heads to Triple-A
The Angels reinstated Bachman (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list and optioned him to Triple-A Salt Lake on Monday.
Bachman started the season on the IL while he recovered from thoracic outlet syndrome, which prevented him from pitching in any Cactus League games during spring training. He was cleared to begin a rehab assignment at Single-A Inland Empire, with whom he made two one-inning appearances before heading to Triple-A. He's since made three one-inning relief appearances for Salt Lake and looks poised to remain in the Triple-A bullpen after he had been previously been utilized as a starter in the minors since the Angels selected him in the first round of the 2021 First-Year Player Draft.

Angels' Sam Bachman: Shifting rehab to Triple-A
The Angels transferred Bachman's (shoulder) rehab assignment to Triple-A Salt Lake on Tuesday.
Bachman continues to progress in his recovery from thoracic outlet syndrome, an issue that caused him to start the season on the 15-day injured list. He's tossed two innings across two rehab outings with Single-A Inland Empire and is getting closer to returning to the majors. Bachman appeared in 11 games for the Angels in 2023 and posted a 3.18 ERA, 1.65 WHIP and 14:11 K:BB across 17 innings.

Angels' Sam Bachman: Kicks off rehab assignment
Bachman (shoulder) began a minor-league rehab assignment with Single-A Inland Empire on Tuesday, striking out two batters in a perfect inning of work.
Bachman opened the season on the major-league 15-day IL due to thoracic outlet syndrome. The issue prevented the right-hander from getting into any spring training games, so his rehab stint will presumably last at least a few weeks. Bachman had been slated to build up as a starter during Cactus League play, though it's unclear what his role will be when he eventually returns to the big-league club. All 11 of the 2021 first-round draft pick's MLB appearances to date have come as a reliever, but all of those outings came in 2023. He spent much of 2024 recovering from shoulder surgery.

Angels' Sam Bachman: Opening season on IL
The Angels placed Bachman on the 15-day injured list Wednesday due to thoracic outlet syndrome, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.
Bachman previously had shoulder surgery in the fall of 2023, and he's now tending to a new health concern that prevented him from making any appearances during the Cactus League. According to Bollinger, Bachman isn't expected to require surgery to address the condition, leaving the Angels optimistic that he might be able to avoid a stint on the 60-day IL and return within the next two months.

Angels' Sam Bachman: Will be a starter in camp
Angels general manager Perry Minasian said Monday that Bachman will be stretched out as a starter during spring training, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.
Bachman was limited to just 16 starts and 61.2 innings -- all in the minors -- in 2024 after recovering from right shoulder surgery. He also accumulated only 43.1 frames in 2023 because of shoulder problems, and all 11 of his appearances in the majors came in relief. However, the Angels still want to develop the righty as a rotation option, with a shift to the bullpen down the line possible. Bachman is likely to begin the 2025 campaign back in the minors.

Angels' Sam Bachman: Reinstated, optioned to Double-A
The Angels reinstated Bachman (shoulder) from the 60-day injured list Friday and optioned him to Double-A Rocket City.
Bachman has spent the past few months recovering from offseason shoulder surgery, and after tossing three innings in his first rehab appearance with Rocket City, he'll remain at that level until the Angels have an opening on their big-league staff. The 24-year-old garnered a 3.18 ERA in 17.0 innings with the Halos in 2023.

Angels' Sam Bachman: Set for start in Double-A
Bachman (shoulder) will move his rehab assignment to Double-A Rocket City on Thursday, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.
Bachman allowed an earned run on three hits across three innings while recording two strikeouts in his most recent rehab outing in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League on Saturday. The righty will now head to Double-A as he gets stretched back out following offseason shoulder surgery.

Angels' Sam Bachman: Continuing rehab assignment
Bachman (shoulder) started a game for the Angels' Arizona Complex League team June 3 and is slated to throw three innings for the club Saturday, per MLB.com.
Bachman removed himself from a rehab outing May 30 due to neck stiffness, but he said he felt better the next day and was able to toss two innings June 3. That outing went well, as the right-hander didn't allow any runs or hits and struck out four batters. Bachman will look to increase his workload by an inning in his next appearance as he continues to build up following offseason shoulder surgery.

Angels' Sam Bachman: Dealing with neck stiffness
Bachman (shoulder) pulled himself from a rehab outing Thursday due to a stiff neck, per MLB.com.
Bachman is attempting to return from offseason shoulder surgery and began a rehab assignment May 25. His second appearance was slated to last two frames, but the neck issue instead limited Bachman to just two-thirds of an inning. The right-hander said he felt better the following day, but it's unclear when his next rehab outing may take place.

Angels' Sam Bachman: Returns to game action
Bachman (shoulder) tossed a scoreless inning Saturday in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League, allowing one hit and striking out one batter.
Bachman is making his way back from offseason shoulder surgery, and he appears to be past the mid-back spasms that slowed his throwing progression in late April. The right-hander is likely looking at several minor-league outings before the Angels consider activating him from the injured list. All 11 of Bachman's big-league appearances last season came in relief, and he could fill a similar role upon his return to the big club unless a spot opens up in the team's rotation.

Angels' Sam Bachman: Faces hitters
Bachman (shoulder) threw live batting practice Friday, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.
Bachman began throwing off a mound May 7, and Friday marks another major step in his recovery from offseason shoulder surgery. The 24-year-old righty will almost certainly require a lengthy rehab assignment before the Angels think about adding him to their rotation, though the team has not yet specified when his assignment will start.

Angels' Sam Bachman: Resuming mound work
Bachman (shoulder) is scheduled to throw off a mound Tuesday, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
Bachman underwent shoulder surgery last October and had his rehab halted by back spasms in late April. However, the back issue appears to have subsided, allowing the right-hander to resume working toward a return to game action. Bachman is likely to need a multi-week rehab assignment in the minors before the Angels consider bringing him up to the big-league club.

Angels' Sam Bachman: Rehab slowed by back issue
Bachman (shoulder) is dealing with mid-back spasms, causing his throwing progression to be put on hold, per MLB.com.
Bachman has been at the Angels' training facility in Arizona rehabbing from October's shoulder cleanup surgery. It was initially expected that the righty hurler would be ready to pitch by the start of spring training, but he's instead been progressing slowly and was placed on the 60-day IL in late March. Bachman could still be ready to return by the beginning of June if the back spasms don't halt his throwing progression for an extended period.

Angels' Sam Bachman: Goes on 60-day IL
The Angels placed Bachman (shoulder) on the 60-day injured list Wednesday.
Bachman is still working his way back from an October cleanup procedure on his right shoulder and is believed to be limited to playing catch off flat ground at this stage in his rehab program, so it's not overly surprising that the Angels are preparing for him to miss at least the first two months of the season. By moving Bachman to the 60-day injured list, the Angels were able to open up a spot on the 40-man roster for infielder Miguel Sano, whose contract was selected ahead of Thursday's season opener in Baltimore.

Angels' Sam Bachman: Advancing through throwing program
Bachman (shoulder) is expected to play catch from 75-to-90 feet Monday, Sam Blum of The Athletic reports.
Bachman is gradually increasing his throwing distance off flat ground as he makes his way back from the right shoulder surgery he underwent Sept. 28. The 24-year-old is expected to miss at least the first month of the 2024 season and could be optioned to Triple-A Salt Lake once he's reinstated from the injured list.

Angels' Sam Bachman: Slated to miss first month
Bachman is expected to miss the first month of the season following right shoulder surgery last October, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
Bachman missed the final three months of last season with a shoulder issue which eventually required a cleanup procedure. The 24-year-old was pitching in relief for the Angels before getting hurt but is slated to open the 2024 season in the Triple-A Salt Lake rotation, once healthy.

Angels' Sam Bachman: Good progress with shoulder
Angels general manager Perry Minasian said Tuesday that Bachman (shoulder) is on track to be ready for the beginning of spring training, Jeff Fletcher of the Orange County Register reports.
Bachman spent the final three months of the 2023 campaign on the major-league injured list due to a shoulder issue that eventually required cleanup surgery, but Minasian said the 24-year-old right-hander is "feeling good" here in early December. Minasian also added that the Angels view Bachman as a starter long term despite having him debut in relief this past summer.

Angels' Sam Bachman: Undergoes shoulder surgery
Bachman recently underwent cleanup surgery on his right shoulder, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
The belief is that he will be ready for the beginning of spring training in February. Bachman, 24, posted an encouraging 3.18 ERA with 14 strikeouts over his first 17 major-league innings this season for the Angels before being shut down in mid-July due to nagging shoulder issues.
