Prior to Tuesday evening's 6 p.m. ET deadline to protect eligible players from the Rule 5 Draft, the Los Angeles Angels added some minor league players to their 40-man roster.

Among the players added are minor leaguers Kolton Ingram and Jose Soriano.

As of the Nov. 15 deadline, the Angels have 39 players on their 40-man roster, with one open roster spot.

Earlier in the afternoon, the Angels reportedly agreed to a three-year, $39 million contract with free agent pitcher Tyler Anderson.

The Angels can add players from other teams via the Rule 5 Draft in three weeks at the Winter Meetings in San Diego. They also can make trades and sign free agents in the meantime, to fill out their roster.
