Angels Release Mark Mulder
The Angels have released left-hander Mark Mulder (http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/m/muldema01.shtml?utm_campaign=Linker&utm_source=direct&utm_medium=linker-www.typepad.com), tweets (https://twitter.com/BillShaikin/status/443410084786216960) Bill Shaikin of the Los Angeles Times. Mulder's comeback attempt was cut short by a freak injury in which he ruptured his Achilles tendon during agility drills.
The former All-Star signed a mi**r league deal with the Angels in January that would have allowed him to earn as much as $6MM in incentives. Mulder was a workhorse from 2001 to 2005 for the Athletics and Cardinals, averaging 211 innings per season with a 3.65 ERA. However, shoulder issues limited him to just 106 innings from 2006 to 2008, his last year in the big leagues. He had worked as an analyst with ESPN since 2011.
