José

Fermin

Honestly, Fermin had no business coming away with this save. He faced five batters and let up three hits as the Marlins pushed him to the brink in the ninth inning. The key reason he escaped his own mess is because Jose Siri made a perfect throw to nail Javier Sanoja at home plate to end the game. This was Fermin’s first save of the season as Ben Joyce pitched the eighth inning in his second outing off the injured list, so pay attention to how this role develops.

The Angels again used Ryan Zeferjahn in the eighth tonight, and he allowed one run to narrow the Angels’ lead to 4-2. José Fermin got the ball to start the ninth, but he retired just one of four batters, thanks to a HBP and a Vaughn Grissom error. Bachman took over afterwards and walked two, hit a batter and committed an error on a roller hit right to him. Two ugly flops in two days should take Bachman out of the ninth-inning mix for a spell and perhaps restore Kirby Yates to late-game duty. Zeferjahn remains the Angels’ most interesting reliever, but as long as Kurt Suzuki keeps managing like this, it’s hard to justify playing anyone in the bunch.

Fermin returns to Los Angeles bullpen with starter Grayson Rodriguez hitting the injured list prior to Monday’s game against the Diamondbacks. The 24-year-old has posted an underwhelming 5.40 ERA and 18/13 K/BB ratio across 15 innings for the Angels this season.

Fermin heads back to the minors after allowing five runs and only recording two outs during Monday’s relief outing against the Rockies. The 24-year-old has posted an inflated 5.40 ERA and 18/13 K/BB ratio across 15 innings for the Angels this season.

Fermin will add a fresh arm to an Angels’ bullpen that has been knocked around lately. The 24-year-old hurler did a decent job in his first nine appearances at the Triple-A level this season, compiling a 3.27 ERA, 1.73 WHIP and a 16/9 K/BB ratio across 11 innings. He’ll function in middle relief for the Angels.

Fermin had a 4.46 ERA, 1.40 WHIP, and 39/23 K/BB ratio in 34 1/3 innings for the Angels last season. The 24-year-old could begin this year at Triple-A.

No word yet on the reason for the move. It’ll be José Fermín taking over at second base with Lars Nootbaar moving up to the leadoff spot in his absence.

Fermin returns to the big leagues for Sunday’s series finale against the Athletics after spending a couple weeks back on the farm. The 23-year-old rookie has posted an underwhelming 6.63 ERA across 19 innings (23 appearances) this season in the big leagues.

Fermín has been shipped back to the minors to make room for fellow rookie Jack Kochanowicz to come up and take the ball on Monday night against the Rangers. The 23-year-old righty has struggled to a lackluster 6.63 ERA across 19 innings (23 appearances) in his first taste of the majors.

Fermin gets the call to replace Hector Neris in the bullpen. The 23-year-old offers some long-term upside but isn’t likely to have a significant role from a fantasy perspective for the remainder of 2025.
