The Los Angeles Angels have activated right-handed reliever Ryan Watson from waivers and optioned right-hander Brett Kerry to Triple-A Salt Lake ahead of Sunday's game against the Miami Marlins. Watson, who was claimed off waivers from the Boston Red Sox, has a 4.53 ERA through 35 games, despite a higher xERA and FIP. The Angels opted Kerry due to their need for a full-strength bullpen for the series finale.
Watson is a Rule 5 draft pick, and the Angels must first offer him to the Giants before designating him for assignment.
