Angels Notes: Wally Joyner looking for a new role in the game

/ STAFF WRITER

Wally Joyner, who was the Detroit Tigers hitting coach the past three seasons, is in Angels camp this week as a guest instructor.

TEMPE, Ariz. — Wally Joyner said he felt like he had come “back home” when he pulled on an Angels uniform.

“Wearing the red again is great,” said Joyner, who began and ended his career with the Angels. “Those are great memories.”

Joyner has been in camp as a guest instructor since late last week. He said he's been working with the hitters and also plans to work with Matt Thaiss, one of the Angels top prospects, on the conversion to first base.
