The Angels sent Kolarek outright to Triple-A Salt Lake on Saturday, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kolarek signed a major-league deal with the Angels in November, but he'll now be relegated to the minors to make room for Zach Plesac, whose signing became official Saturday. Kolarek logged a 3.80 ERA and 1.55 WHIP through 42.2 minor-league frames last season.

Kolarek signed a one-year, $900,000 contract with the Angels on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Kolarek has had limited time in the majors over the past four seasons, and he made just five relief appearances between the Dodgers and Mets last year. He tossed six scoreless innings across those outings and was relatively effective in the minors, posting a 3.80 ERA and 1.55 WHIP in 42.2 innings across 46 relief appearances with Triple-A clubs. Kolarek will join the Angels on a major-league deal ahead of the 2023 campaign but could lose his spot in the big-league bullpen if he struggles at some point.

Kolarek signed a minor-league deal with Atlanta on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Kolarek has had brief stints with both the Dodgers and Mets this season, though he's pitched only six innings in the big leagues. He'll likely begin his tenure with Atlanta at Triple-A Gwinnett, though he could contribute out of the major-league bullpen at some point prior to the close of the regular season.

Kolarek was released by the Mets on Tuesday.

The Mets selected Kolarek from Triple-A Syracuse on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Kolarek was acquired by the Mets in exchange for cash at the trade deadline, and now the 34-year-old southpaw will join the Mets' bullpen for the first time.

Dennis Santana was designated for assignment in a corresponding move.

The Mets acquired Kolarek and Phil Bickford from the Dodgers on Tuesday in exchange for cash considerations, Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kolarek was pushed off the 40-man roster in Los Angeles back in June, but he could at least help cover some relief innings for the Mets down the stretch as they wave the white flag on the 2023 campaign. The 34-year-old left-hander holds a career 3.73 ERA and 96:42 K:BB in 144.2 major-league frames.

EDGE Analysis

Kolarek is removed from both the 40-man and 26-man active roster with Shelby Miller (personal) coming off the bereavement list prior to Wednesday's game versus the White Sox. If Kolarek goes unclaimed, he'll likely report back to Oklahoma City to provide pitching depth in the minors.

Kolarek allowed one hit and struck out two batters over 1.1 scoreless innings against Philadelphia on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

In his first appearance of the campaign, Kolarek gave up a run-scoring single to the first batter he faced before retiring four straight Phillies. The southpaw was called up from Triple-A Oklahoma City earlier in the day and figures to fill a low-leverage role for Los Angeles while he's up with the big club. Kolarek spent most of last season in the minors, but he's had success with the Dodgers in the past, as he posted a minuscule 0.95 ERA and 0.79 WHIP over 19 innings with the team in 2020.
