I don't think they've announced rosters for the teams yet. But today I'm purchasing tickets for the Tri-Cities Dust Devils who are playing the Everett (Mariners) club in 12 days up here. 

@John Smith is usually first to announce the minor league rosters for us here. 

John Smith pretty much posts around The Draft, and who has signed. Makes me think he must have connections in some way with the Organization, and posts under that name.

His real name is Jerry Epplersian

According to this tweet, the Angels AA players arrive at their respective city tomorrow. So I'd assume it'd be similar for the other affiliates.

I'm excited to watch all of the AAA games on Lifetime+.

Makes one wonder how close Paris is?

Maybe 2-2.5 years away tops?

[Angelsjunky]

I just hope they send Paris to A ball immediately. I doubt he'll be in the majors before 2024, but you never know. I think he's going to be really, really good. By year's end, he could be vying with Jordyn Adams for most coveted prospect.

This stood out the most to me.

Alternate training site update
The alternate training site this year has automatically been upgraded from a year ago simply because the Angels were able to play games against another team. Last summer, coaches had to log innings in the field just to get games in. This time around, the Angels got to get reps, albeit exhibition ones, against the D-backs. A lot of younger hitters who were in big league camp went there, rather than have a two-week layoff before Minor league Spring Training got underway. But a pair of really young arms in some ways opened the most eyes.

Jack Kochanowicz and Erik Rivera, the Angels’ third and fourth-round picks in 2019, have yet to throw a real professional pitch. But they went to the alternate site anyway so they could work closely with Angels pitching coordinator Buddy Carlyle. Rivera, a two-way player who picked up 72 at-bats in the rookie-level Arizona League in 2019, did keep getting work in the cages, but the strides he and Kochanwicz, a right-hander, have made on the mound, are what stood out.

“They held their own against that competition, that was encouraging,” Tracy said. “They don’t have a professional game yet, but we’re excited about them. They both went to instructs last fall and opened eyes there.

"They pitched in alternate site games. They were in the strike zone with good stuff. To hear young guys doing that at that level is a good thing to hear.”

Angels top pitching prospect and 2020 first-rounder Reid Detmers will start this year with Double A Rocket City, sources tell The Athletic.

Interesting.

Makes sense, in that he has solid breaking pitches that would flatten like a pancake in SLC’s 4400 foot altitude?

[Angelsjunky]

That’s as expected. I’m curious where they’ll start Adams (probably A+ but could be AA), Jackson (A or A+), and Paris (R or A).

Either way, they probably see the first few weeks as a chance to assess where they belong. Hard to know where to put these guys when they haven’t played real games in almost two years.

[Angel Oracle]

Didn’t Paris take part in alternate site work in 2020?   I would start him off in A ball because of that.
