• The Rangers acquired Silseth and catcher Logan O'Hoppe from the Angels on Wednesday in exchange for infielder Angel Arredondo, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.

  Silseth has found success in a relief role for the Angels this season, posting a 2.72 ERA and 48:22 K:BB over 39.2 innings. Though he's unlikely to unseat All-Star Jacob Latz as the Rangers' closer, Silseth should continue to work fairly often in high-leverage situations with his new squad.

• Silseth registered a hold against Detroit on Sunday, allowing one hit in one scoreless inning.

  Silseth took the mound in the seventh frame with the Angels holding a 3-1 lead. The right-hander gave up a one-out single but was able to finish the inning without allowing any runs. Silseth began his MLB career as a starter, but he's logged all 43 of his appearances out of the bullpen this season. He frequently worked in high leverage early in the campaign, though Sunday's hold was his first since June 12 -- a span of 14 appearances. Silseth has been one of the team's better relivers overall, compiling a 2.95 ERA, 1.39 WHIP and 45:20 K:BB across 36.2 innings.

• Silseth (1-1) allowed an unearned run on a hit with two strikeouts and a walk over one inning to take the loss Wednesday against the A's.

  Silseth entered in the 10th inning with the game tied at 5-5 and was unable to prevent the automatic runner from crossing the plate. Despite picking up his first loss, Silseth hasn't allowed an earned run since April 25, although he has a worrisome 1.42 WHIP and 6:5 K:BB over 6.1 innings during that span. His 2.16 ERA through 21 appearances this season is strong, but a 1.62 WHIP and 16:13 K:BB offer a less encouraging outlook.

• Silseth has "probably put himself in the best position for the opportunity" if Angels manager Kurt Suzuki removes Jordan Romano from the closer role, Jeff Fletcher of the Orange County Register reports.

  Romano has blown back-to-back save opportunities and Suzuki was noncommittal Thursday when asked about his closer situation. Silseth has registered three holds this season, collecting a 2.84 ERA and 8:6 K:BB over 6.1 innings along the way. Drew Pomeranz paces the team with five holds and is also an option to replace Romano if a change is made, though he might pitch the ninth inning only if the opposition has lefties due up. A former starter, Silseth did a bit of closing last season at Triple-A Salt Lake, and he's posted a 3.03 ERA and 31:24 K:BB over 32.2 innings across 27 career relief appearances at the major-league level.

• Silseth allowed one run on four walks and no hits while striking out one batter over one-third of an inning against the Reds on Saturday. He also tossed three wild pitches.

  Silseth entered in the bottom of the eighth inning with two outs, Ke'Bryan Hayes on second base and the Angels down 5-3. The righty reliever dug the hole much deeper, and Silseth's final line could have been even uglier had Eugenio Suarez not struck out with the bases loaded to end the frame. Overall, he threw just 10 strikes on 25 pitches. Coming into Saturday, he had posted a 1.80 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 6:2 K:BB over five innings spanning seven appearances, so Silseth's bout of wildness Saturday may have been an anomaly.

• Angels general manager Perry Minasian said Monday that Silseth will be used as a reliever in 2026, Jeff Fletcher of the Orange County Register reports.

  All 10 of Silseth's appearances for the Angels in 2025 came out of the bullpen, and 11 of his 18 outings at Triple-A Salt Lake were in relief. The 25-year-old is out of minor-league options and will likely begin next season in a middle relief capacity.
