Angels acquire LHP Jake Eder from White Sox
March 31 - The Angels acquired pitcher Jake Eder from the White Sox on Monday in exchange for cash considerations.
Los Angeles optioned the 26-year-old left-hander to Triple-A Salt Lake.
To make room on the 40-man roster, the Angels designated right-hander Michael Petersen for assignment.
Eder made one appearance for Chicago in 2024, allowing one run on two hits in two innings of relief against the Angels on Sept. 17. It was his major league debut.
The White Sox designated Eder for assignment on March 27. They acquired him from the Miami Marlins in an August 2023 trade for third baseman Jake Burger. Miami dealt Burger to the Rangers during the 2024 Winter Meetings.

Angels put Chris Taylor (fractured hand) on IL
June 10 - The Los Angeles Angels placed outfielder/infielder Chris Taylor on the 10-day injured list Tuesday due to a fractured left hand. Taylor was hit on the hand by a pitch from the Athletics' Tyler Ferguson in the bottom of the eighth inning of Los Angeles' 7-4 win on Monday night. Taylor finished out the game in right field and went 0-for-3 with two strikeouts. Taylor, 34, joined the Angels late last month after being released by the Los Angeles Dodgers. He is 6-for-30 (.200) with one homer and three RBIs in 10 games with the club. During his nine-plus seasons with the Dodgers, Taylor had 108 homers and 423 RBIs in 1,007 games with the team. The Angels filled the roster opening by activating first baseman/outfielder LaMonte Wade Jr., who they acquired from the San Francisco Giants on Sunday. A .238 career batter, Wade was hitting just .167 in 50 games with a homer and 15 RBIs this season. He was in his fifth season with the Giants, batting .240 with 52 HRs and 178 RBIs in 488 games with the team. Overall, he has 54 home runs and 182 RBIs with the Minnesota Twins (2019-20) and Giants. Manager Ron Washington said Monday that the Angels will primarily use the left-handed-hitting Wade as a corner outfielder. Wade is not in Tuesday's starting lineup. "We certainly needed a left-handed bat," manager Ron Washington said. "We got some very good reviews from people we know, and he can play both corner outfield spots. And he gives us a quality baseball player and quality person, period." --Field Level Media

Bookmakers shorten Los Angeles with Economics to miss Ascot
The William Haggas-trained Economics had been seen as one of the main dangers to Aidan O'Brien's star, following a three-year-old campaign that saw him win the Dante Stakes and Irish Champion Stakes. He was due to make his reappearance on day two of the Royal fixture, but Haggas told the Racing Post he would not be running and was 'out in the short term, but it's no big deal and hopefully he can be back in action soon'. In his absence Los Angeles is the 3-1 favourite from 7-2 with William Hill, with Owen Burrows' Champion Stakes winner Anmaat next best at 4-1. William Hill spokesman Lee Phelps said: 'News that William Haggas' Economics has been ruled out of Royal Ascot has shaken up the Prince of Wales's Stakes market. 'With one of his key competitors out, we have clipped Los Angeles from 7-2 to 3-1 at the head of the market. 'One horse we're now fearing could be a popular pick is Anmaat after a strong reappearance behind Los Angeles at the Curragh and the Champion Stakes winner could be the punters' pick at 4-1. 'Economics had been third in the betting, but that place now belongs to Wathnan Racing's French raider Map Of Stars (5-1).' Paddy Power make Los Angeles a 5-2 chance, with Map Of Stars 4-1 and Anmaat 9-2.

Shaquille O'Neal sets the record straight on scandalous NBA relationships rumor
Basketball Hall-of-Famer and four-time NBA champion Shaquille O'Neal opened up about what really goes on when stars in the league go on the road. O'Neal was recently hosting an episode of his show, 'The Big Podcast', with fellow TNT personality Adam Lefkoe. In that episode, Lefkoe made the off-hand remark about fame-chasing women, saying 'every city you go to [as an NBA player], the women are looking for you.' But O'Neal rebuffed that assumption, saying that 'never happened' in his career - which spanned over 1,200 regular season games. 'That's a myth,' the 53-year-old O'Neal said, 'I've been in a lot of lobbies — I didn't see anybody. 'So I remember I was coming in; they did this 'Esquire' article about how the girls would be waiting out. So, I was looking for that. Never happened. Never happened. 'Trust me, I was the baddest on the road. It never happened. You go and you see people.' Shaq and Lefkoe were joined on this episode by former NBA guard Brandon Jennings, who agreed with O'Neal's assessment. From there, 'Diesel' explained how hard it was to make a relationship work while living on the road. 'The problem with us is when you live a certain lifestyle, and then it all shuts down, you only know what you know,' O'Neal said. 'So, if you don't know the rules of commitment, it'll never work. And then, you know, us being not committed, everything is an excuse. Because once you say to somebody, 'I'm going to commit,' you've got to do your f***ing job as a man. Right?' 'Once I say, 'You're my girlfriend,' do your job as a man. Everything else is an excuse. All that — there is so much into that. Once I say I commit to you, I'm supposed to do that as a man. I didn't do that. That's why all s–t has always failed. 'But if you live a tiger lifestyle and then you try to become a tame tiger — it ain't going to work. It's not going to work. 'So, you know, there's a reason why the divorce rate is high. Because we live a — and not all of us — but like, we live a certain lifestyle. And a lot comes with it. 'And then when that's all stopping, and you trying to go out and look for that, if you don't understand their rules and understand their laws — it'll never work.' O'Neal hasn't shied away from admitting to mistakes that he's made in past relationships. Back in 2023, he spoke to rapper and R&B singer Monica on her Apple Music Hits show 'Mo Talk Radio', where he admitted to 'being dumb' in two of his past relationships with 'two perfect women'. 'My first one was my baby mother, Arnetta [Yardbourgh], and then I met [his now ex-wife] Shaunie [Nelson]. Shaunie was also a perfect woman and I messed it up,' he said. 'Yeah, you know, we were young and always just doing dumb stuff. But, the good thing about our relationship is that they forgave me and we have a good relationship now. But when you ask me about the perfect woman — I had two perfect women and I messed it up, just by, you know, being dumb.' O'Neal and Shaunie were married for nine years before divorcing in 2011. They share four children: Shareef (who plays in the NBA's G-League), Amirah (who played college basketball at LSU and Texas Southern), Shaqir (who currently plays at Florida A&M) and Me'arah (who just wrapped up her freshman year on the University of Florida's women's basketball team).
