Bill Shaikin of the Los Angeles Times writes that Arizona's Dan Haren and Houston's Roy Oswalt are options for Los Angeles.

Angels Double-A Team Signs Daniel Cabrera

The Arkansas Travelers picked up a new pitcher, adding right-hander Daniel Cabrera to the bullpen. The Los Angeles Angels signed the 29-year-old free agent this afternoon, and added him to their double-A roster. To make room for Cabrera, the Angels gave left-handed pitcher Jayson Miller his release.

Cabrera is a veteran of 162 Major League appearances, 155 in a starting role, mostly with the Baltimore Orioles. Cabrera was signed as a free agent in 1999 by the Baltimore and pitched five seasons for the Orioles before pitching with Washington and Arizona in 2009. He comes to the Travs after being listed in the Chicago White Sox's organization in 2010, but was released before the start of the season.
