The Angels system is not very good. Fortunately, they made a couple of solid trades at the deadline that helped the top of the system, but after Caden Dana, I’m not sure there is a true impact player. Christian Moore has looked good in his professional debut, but I’m not a fan of the swing. Nelson Rada is also intriguing but needs to get stronger.
Sam Aldegheri, Matthew Lugo, and George Klassen were the Angels’ significant acquisitions at the deadline, and all three are projected to be Major Leaguers but will likely fall short of impact Major Leaguers. After that, there are some lottery picks but not much else.
Hopefully, Mike Trout will return healthy in 2025 and give the Angels faithful something to cheer for. Unfortunately, there’s not much in the minor leagues that can surround him to make it a competitive team. It’s been that way for 15 years. Just ridiculous!
Prospect Snapshot
- Top Prospect: Caden Dana
