Matt Shoemaker Becomes Free Agent
Dec. 1, 2018
.The Los Angeles Angels non-tendered starting pitcher Matt Shoemaker on Friday, making him a free agent. Shoemaker has appeal when healthy but has missed significant time the last two seasons with forearm issues and needed surgery in 2018. The right-hander had a 4.94 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and career-high 9.6 K/9 in just seven starts (31 innings) this past season. He can be an asset to a starting rotation when healthy, but it'll depend on where he lands and how healthy he is entering the 2019 season.

Matt Shoemaker Strikes out Seven on Tuesday
Sep. 26, 2018
.Los Angeles Angels starter Matt Shoemaker threw five strong innings on Tuesday, giving up one run and striking out seven. He only gave up four hits and walked zero. Shoemaker has yet to post a quality start, although he has thrown five or more innings with less than three runs in four outings. It's unclear if Shoemaker will make another start this season, but if this is it he finished the year with a 4.82 ERA and a 30/8 K/BB ratio.

Matt Shoemaker Activated From DL, Starting Monday
Sep. 3, 2018
Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher Matt Shoemaker (forearm) has been activated from the 60-day disabled list on Monday and is making his second start of the season against the Rangers. Shoemaker has been out since making his first start of the year and underwent right forearm surgery. As a result, he's not a recommended streamer in his first start back after missing so much time. However, if the right-hander looks good, he could be a deep league streaming option down the stretch.

Matt Shoemaker Expected to Start Monday
Sep. 1, 2018
Los Angeles Angels starter Matt Shoemaker (shoulder) is throwing a bullpen today, lining him up to start for the Angels on Monday. Shoemaker has only made one start this season, and will draw the Rangers on the road on Monday. He is probably not an option right away, but could be an option in deep mixed leagues down the road if he pitches well.
Matt Shoemaker Could Start Next Week
Aug. 30, 2018
Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher Matt Shoemaker (shoulder) will rejoin the team and could start "early next week," according to manager Mike Scioscia. He could be facing the Rangers on the road in just his second start of the season after having forearm surgery earlier this year. Shoemaker probably shouldn't be started immediately upon his return, but he could be an intriguing deep mixed option down the stretch for the Angels.

Matt Shoemaker Could Be Back This Weekend
Aug. 30, 2018
Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher Matt Shoemaker (forearm) could come off the disabled list as early as this weekend after making a rehab start this week. Shoemaker went four innings with High-A Inland Empire, but it's unknown if he'll be a starter or a reliever when he returns. The right-hander has only made one start this year, back on March 31, so the Halos might play it cautious and keep him in the bullpen. However, he could be an option for owners in deep mixed and AL-only leagues if he makes starts down the stretch.

Matt Shoemaker to Make Rehab Start Wednesday
Aug. 27, 2018
Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher Matt Shoemaker (forearm) will head out on a rehab assignment on Wednesday for High-A Inland Empire. Shoemaker is expected to throw between 60-70 pitches. If that goes well, he will likely be ready to return to the majors. Shoemaker has only made one start in the big leagues this season, but could give a hurting Angels rotation a nice boost for the rest of the year. However, he is not worth a look outside of very deep fantasy leagues after posting a 4.51 ERA and a 1.30 WHIP last year.

Matt Shoemaker Progressing Well
Aug. 22, 2018
Los Angeles Angels starter Matt Shoemaker (forearm) has progressed well in his rehab, according to manager Mike Scioscia. He has thrown a few extended bullpen sessions, and is scheduled to throw another one on Wednesday in Arizona. Shoemaker has only made one start this season, but there is still a possibility he returns to the mound this season. However, he should not be counted on in any fantasy formats.

Matt Shoemaker Throwing Monday

Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher Matt Shoemaker (forearm) played aggressive long toss and is now throwing in the bullpen on Monday. Shoemaker has only made one start this year because of injury, but he has time to make a return down the stretch. Of course, fantasy owners shouldn't be counting on him in the final months.

Matt Shoemaker Throws From 90 Feet On Saturday
Jul. 21, 2018
Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher Matt Shoemaker (forearm) was able to throw from 90 feet on flat ground Saturday. Shoemaker is rehabbing his way back from a forearm nerve surgery he underwent in May. It's likely that he remains out for the rest of the season and he could potentially miss part of 2019 as well. However, he is advancing in his throwing program and attempting to make progress along the way. Shoemaker owns a career 39-30 record with a 3.88 ERA and a 461/123 K/BB ratio. At 31 years old, he isn't a hold in dynasty leagues, however, he could potentially be a useful streamer if he gets his health in check during the 2019 season.

Matt Shoemaker Had Forearm Surgery
May. 29, 2018
Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher Matt Shoemaker (forearm) had surgery on his forearm on Tuesday morning. There is no official word on how long he will be out, but Shoemaker's surgery last year cost him 12 to 14 weeks, so this will likely be at least that long. At this point, Shoemaker is droppable in all fantasy formats.
Matt Shoemaker Getting Examined Monday
May. 21, 2018
Los Angeles Angels starter Matt Shoemaker (forearm) played catch on Saturday, his first time since his rehab stalled back on May 6. The specialist that Shoemaker saw said he will better be able to identify the source of Shoemaker's pain if he activates his arm, so now that he has thrown he will be re-examined on Monday. From there, the Angels will know more about his expected timetable. For now, Shoemaker should be off the fantasy radar in all formats. If he is able to return to the hill this season, he could be worth a look in very deep leagues.

Matt Shoemaker Shut Down
May. 10, 2018
Los Angeles Angels right-hander Matt Shoemaker (forearm) has been shut down. "He's stuck in neutral right now," manager Mike Scioscia said. Shoemaker was throwing from 150 feet back on May 2 and at the time felt that a bullpen session was coming soon. Evidently that is not the case. For now, he does not have a timetable to return. Expect Jaime Barria to continue starting in his absence.

Matt Shoemaker Throwing From 150 Feet
May. 1, 2018
Los Angeles Angels right-hander Matt Shoemaker (forearm) is throwing from 150 feet and believes a bullpen session is coming soon. Shoemaker has only started one game this year and is coming off a 2017 season where he made 14 starts and pitched to a 4.51 ERA. He is not a viable fantasy option when he returns, outside of very deep leagues.
Matt Shoemaker Begins Throwing Program
Apr. 23, 2018
Los Angeles Angels starter Matt Shoemaker (forearm) began his throwing program on Monday in Anaheim. Shoemaker has been on the DL since April 3 with nerve irritation, but reported 'drastic improvement' about a week ago. Assuming his throwing program goes well, he could be expected back in a month or so. Deep league owners will want to keep him on the radar going forward.

Matt Shoemaker to Throw in a Week or Two
Apr. 17, 2018
Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher Matt Shoemaker (forearm) said that there has been "drastic improvement" to the nerve irritation that has been plaguing his right arm. He hopes to begin throwing again in a week or two. That's great news for deep league Shoemaker owners, as that means he could be back in mid to late May. The Angels currently only have five pitchers for their six-man rotation, so expect Parker Bridwell to get a handful of spot starts until Shoemaker is able to return. Bridwell is a deep league streamer, at best, while he works himself back into game shape.

Matt Shoemaker Has No Nerve Irritation
Apr. 11, 2018
The Los Angeles Angels have released a medical update on right-handed pitcher Matt Shoemaker. The report states that the study performed earlier this week produced no findings of nerve irritation. As such, Shoemaker will undergo a follow-up exam in a few weeks and will be treated accordingly. So while this is good news overall, Shoemaker is still a few weeks away from even potentially throwing a baseball. He is likely going to be out for a while, so he should not be held except in very deep leagues with multiple disabled list spots.
More Tests in Store for Injured Matt Shoemaker
Apr. 7, 2018
Joey Kaufman of the Orange County Register writes that Angels starting pitcher Matt Shoemaker will be undergoing further tests on his injured forearm. The results of an MRI on Shoemaker showed no major elbow trauma, and he is, "scheduled to undergo additional tests next week, including an electromyography and nerve condition study Monday in Los Angeles." There's no official word on how long he will be out, but it seems he won't be back any time soon.
