Oh.
I guess we'll see how the change of scenery works for both of these guys. Like Grilli, Frieri was taken from the closer's role for the Angels. Hopefully he can get back to being a back of the bullpen arm for us. He has been striking guys out, so he at least has that going for him.
Looking at his numbers, it seems he's been victimized by upticks in HR/FB% (21.1%!) and BABIP. Since I haven't seen him pitch, though, I can't be sure if this is because guys are hitting him hard or if it's bad luck. Since the Angels wanted to deal him, though, and were willing to exchange him for what's left of Grilli, I have to assume it's the former, though.
