The Los Angeles Angels and left-hander Jose Quijada avoided arbitration and agreed to a one-year deal for $1.075 million on Tuesday.
The agreement with the 29-year-old reliever includes a $3.75 million club option for 2026, the team announced.
Quijada was 2-2 with a 3.26 ERA, 17 walks and 24 strikeouts in 19 1/3 innings over 22 appearances last season. Opposing batters hit .190 against him. The Venezuela native went a career-best 12 straight games without giving up a run from Aug. 14 to Sept. 18.
His career record is 4-14 with eight saves, a 4.64 ERA and 172 strikeouts in 128 innings over 140 games (no starts) for the Miami Marlins (2019) and Angels (2020-present).
