The Angels have designated outfielder Ramon Flores for assignment, per a club announcement. He’ll be replaced on the roster by righty Daniel Wright.
Flores, 25, saw just three games during his brief run with the Halos. He has spent somewhat more time in the majors in each of the prior two years, though still has only 331 MLB plate appearances on the ledger. He’s hitting just .204/.281/.256 at the game’s highest level.
That said, Flores has hit quite well at Triple-A over the years, including this one. The left-handed hitter carries a .291/.383/.436 slash in over a thousand trips to the plate there, with only 22 home runs but an intriguing 153:135 K/BB ratio.
former yankees prospect , still rather have him than ellsbury
I’d rather have Bubba Crosby than Ellsbury.
How about Bubba Starling?
I’d rather have anybody over ellsbury but I’m also not a yankee fan
Only with the Angels this would make news.
The Angels promoted Michael Hermosillo to AAA two days ago, so the OF spot for Flores at SLC may be filled. He might find himself with a new team.
