Bradley already missed three months of the season with a broken elbow. He returned on Tuesday, before heading back to the injured list with a forearm strain. Bradley managed just 18 and 2/3 innings this season due to injuries.

The Angels placed Archie Bradley on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a right elbow fracture.

Fantasy Impact

It is not clear when this injury happened, but it is possible Bradley suffered the injury falling out of the dugout in the brawl against the Mariners on Sunday. He will likely be sidelined for some time. Chase Silseth was called up as the corresponding move.

Archie Bradley was called on the pitch in the ninth inning with a three-run lead against the Mariners on Saturday night. He pitched a clean 1-2-3 ninth to record his second save of the season.

Fantasy Impact

Bradley got the save chance in the second game of a doubleheader after the Angels primary closer, Raisel Iglesias pitched in the first game of the double-dip. Bradley has a 4.96 ERA with a 6.6 K/9 rate in 18 relief appearances this season. He does appear to be next in line for the closer's job if Iglesias gets injured.

Relief pitcher Archie Bradley is expected to sign with the Los Angeles Angels.

Fantasy Impact

Bradley will be an immediate upgrade at the back end of the Angels’ bullpen. The veteran right-handed posted a 3.71 earned run average, 13 holds, two saves, 1.43 WHIP, and 40 strikeouts in 51.0 inning pitched while also holding opposing hitters to a .258 batting average with the Philadelphia Phillies during the 2021 season.

Phillies reliever Archie Bradley earned his second save of the season in Thursday's win over the Nationals, allowing two hits and an unearned run in an inning of work.

Fantasy Impact

With Ranger Suarez transitioning to the starting rotation, the Phillies appear to be utilizing a committee approach to the ninth inning for now.
