Silseth broke camp as a member of the Angels' rotation, but he wound up making just two starts for them and only seven more in the minors in 2024 due to an elbow problem which eventually required surgery. The operation was considered minor and isn't expected to affect his readiness for the start of 2025. Silseth has a couple bat-missing secondary pitches in his sweeper and splitter and has posted a solid 23.7 percent strikeout rate during his time in the big leagues. However, he's also issued free passes at a 10.8 percent clip and he's reached 100 innings just once in pro ball (111.2, in 2022). Silseth turns just 25 in May and has more upside than some of the other rotation depth options for the Angels, but he currently looks to be pretty far down in the pecking order. Read Past Outlooks
