The Angels finally have a second tier of SP arms.  It's been a long, long, time and truthfully you'd have to go all the way back to about 2000/2001 to find a time they had a similar core of MLB r

I find the Elijah Greene release to be a bit surprising though I have a feeling it's just because I'm uninformed about something.

He was really good at drawing walks (there was a good few weeks he led all of baseball - minor and major - in walks) and slapping some singles but that was about it. 

Not really a bad minor leaguer just squeezed out to make room for new blood. 

UDFA Bryce Teodosio is having himself a pro debut. 4-5 in his first game with Inland Empire, slashing .333/.474/.633/1.107 in his first nine games with 2 HR, 3 SB, 8 BB. 

There's always nutty results from these older UDFA's when they hit the minors, but you never know, look at Jack Mayfield.

New BA top 100 came out today.  Anyone know how many Angels on it ? Should be interesting with a bunch of people presumably graduating this year. 

Two. Detmers at 20, Marsh at 22.

REID DETMERS:
Fastball: 50. Slider: 50. Changeup: 45. Curveball: 60. Control: 55.

TRACK RECORD: As a sophomore in 2019, Detmers set Louisville’s single-season record with 167 strikeouts and allowed only one earned run in three starts for USA Baseball’s Collegiate National team that summer. He dominated with a 1.23 ERA and 48 strikeouts in 22 innings before the 2020 season shut down and solidified himself as one of the top pitchers in the draft class. The Angels drafted him 10th overall and signed him for $4.67 million. Detmers reported to the alternate training site after signing and threw just over 50 innings between Long Beach and instructional league.

SCOUTING REPORT: Detmers is the archetype of a polished college lefthander. His fastball averages 92 mph but he generates swings and misses at the top of the zone with its high spin rate and late, riding action. His best pitch is a big-breaking curveball in the mid 70s he can drop in the zone for strikes or bury in the dirt for chases. Detmers also has an upper-80s slider that locks up lefthanded hitters, and he’s getting a better feel for a low-80s changeup he didn’t throw much in college. Detmers moves the ball around the strike zone with above-average control, mixes and matches his pitches and keeps hitters guessing.

THE FUTURE: Detmers should move quickly up the Angels’ system. He projects as a solid No. 3 or 4 starter.

 

BRANDON MARSH:
Hitting: 55. Power: 50. Running: 60. Fielding: 60. Arm: 70.

TRACK RECORD: Marsh has been a standout on the field since the Angels drafted him in the second round in 2016, but he’s also been frequently sidelined by injuries. That continued in 2020 when he suffered an elbow strain in spring training and missed part of summer camp for undisclosed reasons. He returned to spend August and September at the alternate training site and built on the offensive adjustments he made in 2019 with Double-A Mobile.

SCOUTING REPORT: Marsh is a high-level athlete who blends big tools with impressive instincts. He is a plus runner who displays excellent routes and reads in center field, has a plus-plus, accurate arm and has an athletic swing that drives the ball hard to the gaps. His game-planning and understanding of how opponents are pitching him continues to grow, and his improved pull-side power in the second half of 2019 has fueled optimism he can approach 20 home runs at his peak. The Angels introduced Marsh to first base at the alternate site. He initially balked at the idea, but grew to enjoy the position and attacked it with the same vigor he displays in the outfield.

THE FUTURE: With his bat continuing to develop, Marsh should join Mike Trout and Jo Adell to give the Angels a star-studded outfield in the near future. He is set to start 2021 at Triple-A and could make his debut during the season.

Angels have two in the Top 25 which is pretty nice, but the Mariners have 3 in the Top 11.

I'm a little surprised they have kept Kirby in A ball this long.  He's 23, dude has been tearing High A up...  They have tended to move guys slower than the Angels or keep them down, but Kirby in A ball seems a bit much.

He's 27 and hitting .332/.448/.591 in 69 games in Inland Empire. Why?

I know he's not a "real prospect," but this is like saying, "We just need a warm body in IE." Give the guy a chance. I'd skip A+ and put him in AA, even AAA.

Agree, kind of weird they've left him there all year...even Hi-A could use some help at 1B - they've been playing Kyle Kasser there primarily and he's more of a 2B/3B guy...

I can understand not moving up to AA since MacKinnon is locked in there everyday, and AAA is a bit of a jump, but at least boost the guy up to Tri-City...

It's going to be with monitoring, how they choose to develop Kerry. Most scouts think he's a reliever, but he has shown the delivery and stamina to go multiple frames. Maybe they develop him as a Ryan Yarbrough type that goes 4-5 innings in a hybrid starter role. Maybe he's just like any other starter. Maybe he transitions back to relief. 

My guess is, he's going to be an immensely valuable weapon down the road, like Jose Suarez was this earlier this year. Great numbers in relief, but could go three innings without worry. Keeps you in games you otherwise would've lost, can bridge that gap between starter and closer without taxing the pen.

Scot Shields 2.0?

Scot Shields might have been a once-in-a-lifetime freak though with how unique he was.

The '21 draft class - not including UDFA - so far has accumulated 20 IP, struck out 36 (K/9 of 16.2), walked 14, allowed 16 hits and 1 HR, with an ERA of 3.60.
Means absolutely nothing but good to see big K numbers.

Still waiting for debuts from Marceaux, Murphy, Jones (might be tonight), Olthoff, Silseth, Albright, Hanely, and Erla.
