INJURIES

NOVEMBER 11, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Designated for assignment The Pirates designated Darrell-Hicks for assignment Thursday, Alex Stumpf of MLB.com reports.
Impact Darrell-Hicks struggled to find his footing on the mound in 2025, posting a 7.45 ERA and 1.45 WHIP through 9.2 MLB innings, as well as an 8.45 ERA and 1.93 WHIP through 38.1 innings in Triple-A. He'll lose his place on Pittsburgh's 40-man roster as a consequence of his struggles, and he'll likely have to turn things around dramatically before the club considers adding him back.
NOVEMBER 6, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Demoted to Triple-A The Pirates optioned Darrell-Hicks to Triple-A Indianapolis on Thursday.
Impact Just two days after coming up from the minors, Darrell-Hicks will head back to Indianapolis to make room for the newly signed Genesis Cabrera. Darrell-Hicks has given up eight earned runs over 9.2 innings during his time in the big leagues this year, and his Triple-A performance hasn't been much better (8.14 ERA through 24.1 IP).

Relegated to minors The Angels optioned Darrell-Hicks to Triple-A Salt Lake on Wednesday.
Impact Since joining the big-league squad April 11, Darrell-Hicks has given up five earned runs across 6.2 innings while striking out four batters and walking four. His poor performance will result in him heading back to the minors, though he hasn't exactly stood out in Triple-A either (9.45 ERA and 1.61 WHIP through 6.2 IP). Victor Mederos was recalled from High-A Tri-City in a corresponding move.

Angels place reliever Ben Joyce on injured list with shoulder inflammation

The Los Angeles Angels placed right-handed reliever Ben Joyce on the 15-day injured list with inflammation in his throwing shoulder
APRIL 11, 2025 • Associated Press
Brought up to majors Darrell-Hicks was recalled from Triple-A Salt Lake on Friday, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
Impact Darrell-Hicks will replace Ben Joyce (shoulder) in the Angels' bullpen and figures to make his MLB debut in the coming days. The 27-year-old righty has made three appearances for Salt Lake so far this season, allowing seven earned runs in just 6.2 innings.
APRIL 11, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Sent back to minors The Angels optioned Darrell-Hicks to Triple-A Salt Lake on Monday.
Impact Darrell-Hicks received his first call-up to the big leagues prior to Sunday's game against the Guardians, but he went unused out of the bullpen in the Angels' 6-2 win and will now head back to the minors. The Angels have yet to announce a corresponding transaction, but Darrell-Hicks' spot on the 26-man active roster will presumably go to right-hander Ryan Johnson, who is set to return from the paternity list ahead of Tuesday's game at Tampa Bay.
APRIL 7, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Summoned to big-league bullpen The Angels selected Darrell Hicks's contract from Triple-A Salt Lake on Sunday.
Impact Darrell-Hicks will get his first call-up to the big leagues and will join the bullpen as a replacement for Caden Dana, who was optioned to Triple-A so that he could presumably continue to stay stretched out as a starter. A 27-year-old righty, Darrell-Hicks had given up two earned runs while striking out four over 4.1 innings for Salt Lake this season. He split time between Triple-A and Double-A Rocket City in 2024, logging a 2.60 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 69:13 K:BB over 62.1 innings.
