The Angels released Cisnero on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

After being DFA'd by the Halos on Sunday, Cisnero will now enter the open market after going unclaimed off waivers. The 35-year-old righty has allowed 12 earned runs in just 15.2 innings this season.

The Angels designated Cisnero for assignment Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Cisnero was reinstated from the 60-day injured list Saturday after missing nearly four months due to shoulder inflammation, and he'll lose his place on the 26-man and 40-man rosters after one appearance. The 35-year-old has a 6.89 ERA, 1.66 WHIP and 17:8 K:BB over 15.2 innings this season.

The Angels activated Cisnero (shoulder) from the 60-day injured list Saturday, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.

EDGE Analysis

Cisnero hasn't pitched for the Halos since April 27 due to inflammation in his throwing shoulder. However, after allowing one run with eight strikeouts across four rehab appearances (4.2 innings) with Triple-A Salt Lake, the 35-year-old was cleared to rejoin the active roster. Jose Soriano (arm fatigue) was placed on the 15-day injured list in a corresponding move.

Cisnero (shoulder) tossed a scoreless inning during his first rehab appearance with Triple-A Salt Lake on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Cisnero has been on the shelf since late April due to right shoulder inflammation but has finally been cleared to pitch in games. Given the length of his absence, the reliever is likely to require a handful of rehab appearances before rejoining the Angels' bullpen.

Cisnero (shoulder) threw off a mound in late June, per MLB.com.

EDGE Analysis

Cisnero was shut down from throwing in late May after feeling tightness in his lower back, but he's now almost a month into the resumption of his throwing program. His advancement to tossing off a mound suggests he is making strides toward a return, though it's uncertain when the righty reliever will be ready to pitch in games again. Cisnero hasn't faced hitters since making his third appearance in four days for the Angels in a relief outing versus Minnesota on April 27.

Cisnero (shoulder) threw from 120 feet Friday, per MLB.com.

EDGE Analysis

Cisnero had previously thrown from 120 feet in mid-May but then had his throwing program halted after suffering lower-back tightness. The righty reliever appears to be back on track in his rehab, though it's unclear how far away he is from being ready to return to the Angels' bullpen. Cisnero hasn't pitched in a game since April 27, so he may require a rehab assignment before being activated from the injured list.

Cisnero (shoulder) restarted a throwing program June 10, per MLB.com.

EDGE Analysis

Cisnero has been out of action since April 27, and he landed on the 10-day injured list due to shoulder discomfort the following day. The right-handed reliever began a throwing program May 17 but was subsequently shut down after experiencing lower-back tightness. Cisnero was eventually transferred to the 60-day IL, so he's not eligible to return until late June, though there's a good chance he'll remain out longer than that.

The Angels transferred Cisnero (shoulder) to the 60-day injured list Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Cisnero landed on the injured list April 28 due to inflammation in his right shoulder, and his move to the 60-day IL will require him to be sidelined until at least June 27. The 35-year-old right-hander began throwing off a mound May 19, but the Angels have not yet indicated when they plan on having him face live hitters. Michael Stefanic (quad) was reinstated from the 60-day IL in a corresponding move to fill Cisnero's roster spot.

Cisnero (shoulder) started a throwing progression May 9 and advanced to throwing off a mound May 19, per MLB.com.

EDGE Analysis

Cisnero landed on the injured list with right shoulder inflammation April 28. Angels manager Ron Washington said at the time that the injury isn't considered serious, and the righty reliever has been making steady progress toward a return. Cisnero struggled prior to being placed on the IL, posting a 7.07 ERA, 1.71 WHIP and 16:7 K:BB through 14 innings.

The Angels placed Cisnero on the 15-day injured list Sunday due to right shoulder inflammation.

EDGE Analysis

The right-hander presumably suffered the injury during his appearance against the Twins on Friday, when he allowed three runs over two-thirds of an inning. Cisnero will be sidelined for at least the next couple weeks but is without an official timeline for his return.
