Free-agent pitcher Zach Plesac is close to signing a major league deal with the Los Angeles Angels, according to sources familiar with the situation. Plesac, who has 2 option years remaining, could be sent to AAA if he doesn't recapture his 2020 form. The Angels are reportedly giving Plesac a one-year, $1 million contract, and they outrighted LHP Adam Kolarek to create a 40-man spot for Plesac. Plesac's addition to the Angels' roster is seen as a depth signing, indicating the team's willingness to spend money on fringe free agents. The deal is for an AAV that will surprise many in a good way, as it is relatively light. Plesac, a Driveline Trainee, has apparently added a splitter to his pitching arsenal, which could be an interesting development to watch.
Angels finalize 1-yr, $1M deal with Zach Plesac https://t.co/hpeY6CU9fT
Now the Adam Kolarek signing makes WAY more sense. The #Angels gave him $900k guaranteed, knowing that they could outright him off the 40-man later in the offseason. The contract ensured no one claimed him and he wouldn’t reject the outright assignment + give up the $900k. https://t.co/SWqavuAoHW
Angels Outright Adam Kolarek https://t.co/pUk9sqianB https://t.co/E0GdeHqSYX
The Angels announced the Zack Plesac deal. It's a one-year, $1 million deal. They outrighted LHP Adam Kolarek to create a 40-man spot. (Kolarek signed a $900k guaranteed deal in November.)
The Angels outrighted Adam Kolarek off the 40-man roster to make room for Zach Plesac. Plesac’s 1-year MLB deal is worth $1 million.
The Angels make their Zach Plesac signing official. He gets a one-year, $1 million contract. The Angels made room for him by out-righting LHP Adam Kolarek to Triple-A Salt Lake.
Giving Kolarek $900K guaranteed and then him not even surviving to Spring Training on the 40-man sure is interesting https://t.co/IjazDacWPd
Angels contract with Zach Plesac: $1 million, 1 year. Adam Kolarek sent outright to AAA.
#Angels make the Plesac signing official. It’s for one year and $1M. Lefty Adam Kolarek, who was signed earlier this offseason, was outrighted to Triple-A Salt Lake https://t.co/4bzS4Rk3pD
OFFICIAL: The Angels have agreed to a one-year contract with RHP Zach Plesac. https://t.co/BaMpvrsuiM
Still waiting for Zach Plesac’s deal to get officially announced. Along with it, we should hear the official dollars for the contract and the corresponding move. (Watch them tweet the move soon after this tweet, lol)
New #Angels RHP Zach Plesac has apparently added a splitter to his arsenal at driveline. Noteworthy as he was basically a two pitch pitcher (Fastball/Slider) could be something to watch. https://t.co/N1YCwYGpIu
Congrats to Driveline Trainee Zach Plesac on signing with the Angels 🙌 https://t.co/nu9ODtAJnZ

The #Angels giving guaranteed deals to guys like Adam Kolarek and Zach Plesac is a clear indication that they have money they can and will spend. If they were broke, they wouldn’t be giving guaranteed money to fringe free agents.

Angels have a deal done with Zach Plesac @ByRobertMurray 1st said “close”
My read on this is that it’s a depth signing and not much more. Zach Plesac has 2 option years remaining, so the Angels can send him to AAA if he doesn’t recapture his 2020 form (2.28 ERA, 3.39 FIP in 55.1 IP). https://t.co/VfSCPJLrgT
