Angels place RHP Jose Soriano on paternity list
Soriano, 26, can miss up to a maximum of three games while on the list.
The Angels recalled right-hander Chase Silseth from Triple-A Salt Lake in a corresponding move.
Soriano was slated to start a game in the three-game weekend series against the visiting Chicago Cubs prior to the announcement. When he returns to the team will be the prime factor in determining when he pitches next.
Soriano is 8-9 with a 4.00 ERA in 26 starts this season, his third in the majors. He has set career highs for victories, innings pitched (148 2/3) and strikeouts (130).
Silseth, 25, is 0-1 with a 6.75 ERA in two starts for the Angels this season. He is 5-5 with a 5.06 ERA in 25 appearances (17 starts) in parts of three seasons.
The Angels have lost four of five games entering Wednesday's contest.

Jets trade for Browns DT, reportedly get another from Vikings
August 21 - The New York Jets put their attention firmly on the defensive tackle position Wednesday, trading with the Cleveland Browns for one player then reportedly striking a deal with the Minnesota Vikings for another. First, the Jets acquired second-year defensive tackle Jowon Briggs from the Browns in exchange for a sixth-round pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. New York also received a seventh-round pick in 2026 that initially belonged to the Buffalo Bills. The Briggs trade was officially announced. Then the Jets picked up Harrison Phillips and a 2027 seventh-round draft pick from the Vikings, according to multiple media reports. Minnesota received sixth-round selections in each of the next two drafts. According to ESPN, New York will be on the hook for just half of the $7.4 million that Phillips will make this year. Briggs, who turns 24 on Sept. 1, appeared in six games as a rookie in 2024 and made 13 tackles, including one for loss, and two quarterback hits. He also recovered one fumble. He spent most of the season on the practice squad. The Browns selected Briggs in the seventh round of the 2024 draft out of Cincinnati. Phillips, 29, started all 17 games for the Vikings in each of the past three seasons. In that span, he logged a total of 6.5 sacks, 207 tackles (seven for loss), one forced fumble, two fumble recoveries and seven passed defensed. A third-round pick of the Bills in 2018, Phillips appeared in 45 games (11 starts) with Buffalo over four seasons. In his NFL career, he has eight sacks, 314 tackles (15 for loss), one forced fumble, five fumble recoveries and 10 passes defensed. --Field Level Media
