Victor Mederos: Everything you need to know

Mederos is expected to be recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett ahead of Tuesday's game against the Marlins, Francys Romero of BeisbolFR.com reports. This promotion isn't official just yet, and Atlanta would need to make a corresponding move to make room on the active roster for Mederos. The 24-year-old, who was traded to Atlanta from the Angels in April in exchange for international bonus pool money, has worked to a 4.81 ERA and 1.48 WHIP with 21 strikeouts across 24.1 innings this season at Triple-A.

Atlanta acquired Mederos from the Angels on Friday in exchange for international bonus pool money and optioned him to Triple-A Gwinnett. The right-hander was waived by the Halos last weekend and is now headed to a new organization. Mederos appeared in five games (three starts) for Anaheim last year and had a 7.41 ERA and 14:12 K:BB over 17 innings, though he was more effective at Triple-A with a 3.39 ERA and 1.34 WHIP across 16 starts.

The Angels designated Mederos for assignment Sunday. The right-hander missed out on the Opening Day roster and will lose his place on the 40-man roster after he surrendered seven earned runs over three frames in his season debut for Triple-A Salt Lake on Friday. Mederos could remain with Salt Lake if he passes through waivers unclaimed.
