Angels Outright John Hester, Robert Carson
The Angels have outrighted catcher John Hester (http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/h/hestejo01.shtml?utm_campaign=Linker&utm_source=direct&utm_medium=linker-www.typepad.com) and lefty*Robert Carson (http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/c/carsoro01.shtml?utm_campaign=Linker&utm_source=direct&utm_medium=linker-www.typepad.com), Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times tweets (https://twitter.com/MikeDiGiovanna/status/442386120416849920). The moves create two openings on the Angels' 40-man roster, which DiGiovanna points out will likely be needed for **n-roster invitees who make the Angels' roster out of camp.
Hester, 30, has a career .216/.294/.351 line in 232 career big-league plate appearances. He appeared in just one game with the Angels in 2013, spending most of the season at Triple-A Salt Lake. Carson, 25, pitched 19 2/3 innings out of the Mets' bullpen in 2013, posting an 8.24 ERA with 3.7 K/9 and 3.2 BB/9. He fared better in 44 1/3 innings at Triple-A Las Vegas, with a 4.06 ERA there. The Angels claimed him from the Mets in October.
