Zach Neto Called Up By The Angels
2 years agoLos Angeles Angels shortstop Zach Neto has been called up from Double-A Rocket City on Saturday. The 22-year-old Neto was the Angels' first-round pick last season and is expected to take over at shortstop full-time for the big league club, according to Jeff Passan. He's appeared in just 44 minor league games overall but has performed well, slashing .322/.408/.529 with eight home runs, 37 RBI, and eight steals. He offers a nice blend of speed and pop and it's encouraging to see that the Angels are going to give him a real shot to run away with the shortstop job. He is worth grabbing in deeper fantasy leagues, particularly for any managers dealing with shortstop woes, of which there are many.
