The Angels optioned Eder to Triple-A Salt Lake on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Eder worked as the Angels' bulk reliever Tuesday, giving up five earned runs over six innings and taking his first loss of the season. Now sporting a 4.91 ERA and 1.31 WHIP in the majors, he'll head back to the rotation at Salt Lake, where he owns a 6.11 ERA and 1.47 WHIP. Jose Quijada was promoted from Triple-A to fill the vacancy in the Angels' bullpen.
