The Angels gave up
infielder Taylor Lindsey. He is hitting .247/.323/.400 in AAA Salt Lake this year.
But I think the guy with the upside in the deal is
reliever R.J. Alvarez. 0.33 ERA in AA Arkansas this year. 12.7 K/9 and 3.3 BB/9 and 0 HR in 27 IP.
The Padres also get infielder Jose Rondon and the Angels get a minor leaguer back.
The Padres are stockpiling middle infielders. A lot of pundits said that Jose Rondon has the most upside out of the four guys the Angels gave up. Weird seeing Street in a red uniform.
