He failed to find his footing while up with the Angels in 2024, allowing 11 earned runs on 12 hits and seven walks while fanning five over 12 frames (three starts).

Set to start Monday Plesac will draw the start Monday versus the Brewers.
Impact Plesac will replace Jose Soriano (abdomen) on the mound after Soriano was a late scratch with lower abdominal pain Monday. Plesac had his contract selected by Los Angeles on Monday and he'll now get his first chance to start a major-league contest in 2024. The right-hander has produced a 5.42 ERA and 1.43 WHIP with 51 strikeouts over 74.2 innings in 13 starts with Triple-A Salt Lake this season.

Angels cut long-struggling lefty José Suarez, bring up Zach Plesac, activate Brandon Drury from IL

Struggling left-hander José Suarez has been designated for assignment by the Los Angeles Angels after his latest poor outing
JUNE 17, 2024 • Associated Press
Contract selected by Halos The Angels selected the contract of Plesac on Monday.
Impact After being designated for assignment by the Angels on April 8, Plesac stayed with the organization in Triple-A after passing through waivers. Across 13 starts with Triple-A Salt Lake, Plesac holds a 3-7 record with a 5.42 ERA and 1.43 WHIP. However, over his last two starts, he's given up two runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out 11 over 15.1 innings. With Chase Silseth (elbow) close to returning from the 60-day IL, Plesac will likely operate out of the Angels' bullpen after right-hander Jose Suarez was designated for assignment in a corresponding move.

DECEMBER 31, 2023 • MLB.COM
Reaches deal with Angels Plesac signed a contract with the Angels on Saturday, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.
Impact Plesac showed some promise with the Guardians from 2019-20, posting a 3.32 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 145:46 K:BB over 171 innings covering 29 starts. He regressed to a 4.49 ERA from 2021-22, though, and bottomed out in 2023 in collecting a 7.59 ERA in five starts with Cleveland and 6.08 ERA at Triple-A Columbus. Plesac will turn 29 next month and would appear slated for long relief or perhaps a swingman role in Anaheim.

REPORT: Former Guardians Starting Pitcher Zach Plesac Elects Free Agency After five seasons with Cleveland, 28-year-old starting pitcher Zach Plesac is now a free agent.
OCTOBER 13, 2023 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM
Goes unclaimed off waivers Plesac cleared waivers Sunday and accepted an outright assignment to Triple-A Columbus, Tom Withers of the Associated Press reports.
Impact Despite Plesac's standing as a pitcher with parts of five seasons of MLB experience and solid ratios for his career (4.20 ERA, 1.23 WHIP, 12.1 K-BB%), none of the majors' other 29 organizations were willing to assume the money remaining on his $2.95 million contract for 2023. The right-hander had already taken a slight step backward from a performance standpoint over the previous two seasons before nosediving even further in 2023, as he submitted a 7.59 ERA over his first five starts before Cleveland optioned him to the minors in May. Now off the 40-man roster entirely, Plesac will face an uphill battle to make it back to the big leagues unless the Guardians lose multiple starters to injury.

Guardians DFA Zach Plesac, activate RHP Triston McKenzie The Cleveland Guardians designated for assignment starting pitcher Zach Plesac, who was sent to Triple-A Columbus earlier this season.
JUNE 4, 2023 • STAR-TELEGRAM.COM
Removed from 40-man roster Cleveland designated Plesac for assignment Sunday, Mandy Bell of MLB.com reports.
Impact Plesac is removed from the 40-man roster to make room for Triston McKenzie (shoulder), as McKenzie was reinstated from the 60-day injured list to make his season debut against Minnesota on Sunday. Once a rotation stalwart for Cleveland, Plesac struggled with a 7.59 ERA in his five starts with the Guardians, and he was optioned to Triple-A Columbus early in May. Because of his previous success it wouldn't be a surprise if the right-hander drew interest, but he's a reclamation project at this stage of his career.
