Jo Adell, earlier this week ranked the No. 2 prospect in baseball by Baseball Prospectus, is among the non-roster players the Angels have invited to major league spring training.
Adell, 19, was also ranked the No. 6 prospect in baseball by Baseball America.
The Angels’ top pick in the 2017 draft, Adell just hit .290 with 20 homers in his first full pro season, rising to Double-A.
Right-hander Griffin Canning, the Angels’ second-round pick out of UCLA in 2017, was also invited to big league camp. Jose Suarez, the Angels No. 2 pitching prospect, will also be in camp, as a member of the 40-man roster.
Top prospects Jahmai Jones and Matt Thaiss have also been invited back for their second big league camp.
Jared Walsh was invited to camp and listed as a two-way player. An outfielder and first baseman, Walsh began getting formal instruction as a pitcher in the fall.
In all, the Angels invited 21 players. Pitchers Miguel Almonte, Alex Meyer, Matt Ramsey, Jeremy Rhoades, Forrest Snow and Canning; catchers Dustin Garneau, Jack Kruger, Julian Leon, Keinner Pina and Roberto Peña; infielders Wilfredo Tomar, Jones and Thaiss; outfielders Peter Bourjos, Brennan Lund, Jarrett Parker, Cesar Puello, Adell and Marsh; and Walsh.
