|
| Rudy Seanez has been released by the Angels, according to TSN. |
Our View: The 40-year-old reliever did not see any action in the majors this season, and held no fantasy value.
|
|
|
|
| Rudy Seanez has been sent to Triple-A Salt Lake by the Angels, according to the Orange County Register. |
Our View: The 40-year-old reliever was assigned to Salt Lake following a solid two-week stint in extended spring training. Seanez could join the Angels' bullpen at some point this season, but would not hold much fantasy value.
|
|
|
|
| Rudy Seanez has inked a minor league deal with the Angels, according to Newsday. |
Our View: He will spend a few weeks in the minors, and could join the Angels' bullpen if he pitches well. The 40-year-old vet does not look to hold much fantasy value.
|
|
|
|
| The Angels are close to inking Rudy Seanez to a minor league deal, according to the Los Angeles Times. |
Our View: The 40-year-old vet pitched with the champion Phillies last season, and the Angels will add him to provide depth to a bullpen that currently holds an MLB-worst 6.90 ERA, with five blown saves. He would likely be sent to the extended spring training camp in Arizona before joining triple-A Salt Lake.
|
|
|
|
| Rudy Seanez may be added to the Phillies' NLCS roster instead of J.A. Happ, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer. |
Our View: Happ did not appear in the NLDS against Milwaukee. The decision to add Seanez or Happ will come down to what they feel is more valuable: a long-reliever capable of pitching multiple innings in the event of a starter breaking down, or another righthander who would be more likely to contribute in mid-to-late inning situations.

|
| Phillies reliever Rudy Seanez returned to the team after recovering from right shoulder inflammation that led to him being placed on the disabled list August 1, according to the Philadelphia Daily News. |
Our View: Seanez will work the middle innings, and he does not have fantasy value, especially due to his control issues, which have him at 6.06 BB/9.
|
|
|
|
| Rudy Seanez, who is on the DL while recovering from right shoulder inflammation, threw a scoreless inning in his first minor league rehab appearance Monday at Triple-A, according to the Philadelphia Daily News. He showed no ill effects after throwing 11 pitches in the inning.
|
Our View: He is slated to pitch again tonight and is expected to rejoin the Phillies Saturday in San Diego. He only allowed 13 earned runs over 32.2 innings, but walks too many batters, as he holds a 1.62 WHIP.
|
|
|
|
| Rudy Seanez threw a successful bullpen session Wednesday as he reported no pain in his right shoulder, according to the Philadelphia Daily News. |
Our View: Seanez will make a couple of rehab appearances, but should be ready to rejoin the Phillies when he is eligible to come off the DL on August 16. He only allowed 13 earned runs over 32.2 innings, but walks too many batters, as he holds a 1.62 WHIP.
|
|
|
|
| The Philadelphia Phillies put reliever Rudy Seanez on the 15-day disabled list with inflammation in his right shoulder, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer. |
Our View: Seanez has a respectable ERA of 3.58, but he walks far too many people and his WHIP was 1.62. He holds little fantasy value.
|
|
|
|
| Reliever Rudy Seanez is dealing with back spasms that prevented him from pitching Monday, according to the Philadelphia Daily News and Inquirer. |
Our View: He felt better Tuesday, but it remained uncertain if he could have pitched.

|
|
|
| Rudy Seanez has been signed by the Phillies, according to the LA Times. The 39-year old was recently released by the Dodgers and is expected to be activated by his new team on Wednesday. |
|
|
|
|
|
| Rudy Seanez signed a 1-year deal for $550,000 to remain with the Dodgers in 2008 (he can earn up to $750,000 in incentives). Last season he went 6-1 with a 3.79 ERA in 73 games for the Dodgers and figures to fill much the same role with the team this year as a middle reliever and only figures to be a valuable fantasy performer if Jonathan Broxton or Takashi Saito goes down to injury. |
|
|
|
| Rudy Seanez will open the year in the Dodgers bullpen. He had a snappy 1.59 ERA in 11 1/3 innings, with 14 strikeouts against just two walks. |
|
|
|
| Rudy Seanez has yet to allow a run in 8 1/3 innings this spring. Seanez is pitching well enough that the non-roster invitee might push Elmer Dessens and his $1.7 million contract out of the bullpen, according to the LA Times. Dodgers officials have said they will take the best roster into the season, regardless of contracts. |
|
|
|
| Rudy Seanez has signed a minor-league deal with the Dodgers, according to the Denver Post. Seanez held a 4.92 ERA in 49 games for the Red Sox and Padres last season. He will make $700,000 if he makes the team and could make another $500,000 in incentives. |
|
|
|
| As expected, Rudy Seanez has signed with the Padres, according to SportsTicker. The Red Sox designated him for assignment on Aug. 19. He'll add some depth to their bullpen. |
|
|
|
| The San Diego Union-Tribune reports that Rudy Seanez has reached a verbal agreement with the Padres. He was released recently by the Red Sox and cleared waivers. He should be activated prior to Friday's game, assuming the contract is formally signed. |
|
|
|
| The Red Sox designated Rudy Seanez for assignment on Saturday, according to the Boston Globe. If he clears waivers, it appears unlikely that he would accept an assignment to the minors. |
