The agreement includes an invitation to spring training for the righthander, who retired...
Though he was used mostly in bridge relief during his three seasons with the Angels, Ty Buttrey did amass 11 saves from 2018-20.The Astros signed righthanded reliever Ty Buttrey to a minor league deal that includes an invitation to major league spring training.
Buttrey, who announced the news on his Twitter account, pitched for the Los Angeles Angels from 2018-20. He compiled a 4.30 ERA and 1.30 WHIP across 115 innings during his Angels tenure, most of which he spent as a late-inning option.Buttrey briefly retired from baseball in 2021 at age 28, citing his “love and passion for this game to diminish.” Buttrey’s decision came after he did not make the Angels’ opening-day roster out of spring training.
“I’m tired of pretending and lying to the best fan base in the world,” Buttrey wrote in a since-deleted Instagram post announcing his retirement. “Life is super simple, find your true passion, find people you love and don’t give a damn what any person outside those lines thinks. People love to have control over others.”
Buttrey ended his retirement and returned to baseball last season. He threw 36 ⅓ innings and sported a 5.94 ERA for the Angels’ Class AAA affiliate in Salt Lake City.
