Matt Shoemaker pitched three innings and allowed two runs in a no-decision against the Athletics on Sunday.

Shoemaker gave up two hits and two walks, and he struck out three. It was a disappointing season for several Angels, and Shoemaker wasn’t an exception. He was limited to just seven starts in 2018, and he registered and 1.26 WHIP in 31 innings. Shoemaker should get the opportunity to pitch in the Angels’ rotation again, and if he can stay healthy, he has a chance to succeed. That’s a big if, though, and it would be a mistake to invest too much in the 32-year-old considering his track record. Sep 30 - 5:56 PM

2B	1	David Fletcher Sidelined Angels' manager Mike Scioscia admitted that he's not optimistic about the chances of David Fletcher (hamstring) returning this season. Fletcher suffered a left hamstring strain during Sunday's game against the Mariners. He'll be evaluated on Monday to determine the severity of the injury, but given that there are only two weeks left in the season, his chances of returning appear to be slim. Kaleb Cowart should see additional time at second base while he's out. Sep 16

	3	Zack Cozart 60-Day DL Angels transferred INF Zack Cozart from the 10-day disabled list to the 60-day disabled list. That clears a spot on the 40-man roster for Taylor Cole. Cozart will undergo season-ending surgery to repair a torn labrum in his left shoulder on Friday. The operation will be performed by renowned surgeon Dr. Neal ElAttrache. An All-Star with Cincinnati last year, Cozart disappointed in 2018, hitting just .219 with five homers and 18 RBI across 224 at-bats. Jun 28

	2	Chris Young 60-Day DL Angels transferred OF Chris Young from the 10-day disabled list to the 60-day disabled list. Young was diagnosed with labral tears in both of his hips earlier this month. The veteran outfielder is done for the season, having slashed just .168/.252/.363 across 128 plate appearances with the Angels. Aug 14
DH	1	Albert Pujols 60-Day DL Albert Pujols will undergo surgery on Wednesday to remove bone spurs from his right elbow. Pujols was already done for the season following an arthroscopic debridement of his left knee late last month and he will now have an additional operation to recover from. He also had an injection in his left elbow last Friday to combat tendinitis. The future Hall of Famer will turn 39 years old in January and still has three years and $87 million remaining on his contract. Sep 10

S	1	Garrett Richards 60-Day DL Angels transferred RHP Garrett Richards from the 10-day disabled list to the 60-day disabled list. It's a paper move to clear a spot on the 40-man roster. Richards opted for season-ending Tommy John surgery earlier this month and appears likely to miss all or most of 2019, as well. He's set to become a free agent this offseason. Jul 31
	2	Shohei Ohtani Sidelined Shohei Ohtani underwent Tommy John surgery on Monday. The operation was performed in Los Angeles by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who said that he was encouraged by what he saw during the surgery. Ohtani will not pitch again until 2020, but the hope is that he will be able to serve as a full-time designated hitter for the Angels in 2019. Oct 1

Tropeano was officially shut down for the season on September 11 due to ongoing complications related to a right shoulder injury. He is undergoing platelet-rich plasma treatment in the hope of avoiding surgery. Sep 18

	9	Ty Buttrey Sidelined Ty Buttrey has been shut down for the remainder of the season due to a recurrence of right knee bursitis. Buttrey briefly held a share of the Angels' closer role this month, but he got lit up in his last two appearances and now his 2018 has come to a premature conclusion. The 25-year-old right-hander should have a prominent spot in the Angels' bullpen leading into the 2019 season. Hansel Robles and Jim Johnson have earned the last two saves for Anaheim, with Blake Parker working more as a setup man recently. Sep 27
	10	Jake Jewell 60-Day DL Angels transferred RHP Jake Jewell to the 60-day disabled list. Nothing has changed in Jewell's recovery process, this was merely one as a procedural move to free up a spot on the 40-man roster for Oliver Drake. Jewell underwent season-ending surgery to repair a fractured right fibula and won't return until 2019. Jul 6
	11	Blake Wood 60-Day DL Angels transferred RHP Blake Wood from the 10-day disabled list to the 60-day disabled list. Wood underwent Tommy John reconstructive elbow surgery on May 31. He'll miss the remainder of the 2018 season and a large chunk of the 2019 campaign. Jun 12
	12	Keynan Middleton 60-Day DL Keynan Middleton underwent successful Tommy John surgery on Tuesday. Middleton needed UCL reconstruction, and now will begin the long road back from the surgery. There's a chance he could return at some point in 2019, but it's more likely we'll see him back on the mound in 2020. May 23
