The Angels have signed infielder Angel Sanchez to a minor league deal, reports MLB.com's Evan Drellich. The contract contains an invitation to the Halos' Major League Spring Training camp.
Sanchez, 29, hit .240/.305/.285 in 328 plate appearances with the Astros last season and elected to become a free agent earlier this month. Sanchez has a total of 628 Major League PAs with the Astros, Red Sox and Royals in a 12-year pro career that began as a 17-year-old. With Maicer Izturis expected to sign elsewhere in free agency, Sanchez will compete to replace him as infield depth on the Angels' bench.
That’s ironic!
Yes, you got me here sir, especially when the real Anibal Sanchez is a FA.
They just need to pick up Angel Pagan and we’ve got something going here.
