Johnny Cueto has been designated for assignment by the Los Angeles Angels following disappointing performances. The 38-year-old pitcher allowed nine runs over his two starts, both resulting in losses.
Despite his struggles, manager Ron Washington praised Cueto's impact on younger pitchers, highlighting his work ethic and willingness to share knowledge.
Cueto's brief stint with the Angels follows a minor league deal and a previous tenure with the Texas Rangers. The team is now integrating younger pitchers into their lineup, including Sam Aldegheri and Caden Dana.
