Angels' A.J. Achter: Outrighted to minors

Achter was outrighted to Triple-A Salt Lake on Monday.

Achter was designated for assignment last week and after passing through waivers unclaimed, he'll report to the Triple-A affiliate. The 28-year-old was actually fairly effective in the majors this season, working to a 3.11 ERA -- though his FIP was 5.91 and he had a dreadful 1.2 K/BB. He'll serve as organizational depth and could find his way back in the big league bullpen at some point next season.
