Former Phillies Starter Gets Fresh Start With Angels After Release

Getty Taijuan Walker has found a new club after getting released by the Phillies in April.

The Philadelphia Phillies parted ways with Taijuan Walker earlier this season. With Zack Wheeler returning from thoracic outlet surgery, the club jettisoned the 33-year-old starter after he posted a 9.13 ERA in five appearances.

It didn’t take long for the right-hander to find a new home. Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports that Walker has agreed to a minor league deal with the Los Angeles Angels. He’ll report to the club’s Spring Training facility in Tempe, Arizona.
