Last season, he was a combined 5-1 with a 2.56 ERA, 60 strikeouts and 15 walks in 52 2/3 innings over 50 games. The Angels saw him go 4-1 with a 2.66 ERA, 49 strikeouts and 12 walks in 44 innings over 41 games.
For his career, Moore is 66-63 with a 4.36 ERA, 1,012 strikeouts and 460 walks in 1,094 1/3 innings over 318 games (164 starts).
