The Angels released Justin Speier before today's game to make room on the roster for Trevor Bell. The Angels owe Speier the remainder of his salary for this season and $5.25 million for next season.

Speier was a disappointment last season and this season, but he was a good clubhouse guy. I am sad that it did not work out for him as an Angel. Time to move forward though.
