ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. – The most interesting pick the Angels made in the third and final day of the draft on Wednesday was an Orange County high school pitcher they have no intention to sign.
Jonah Dipoto, the son of Angels general manager Jerry Dipoto, was taken with the team’s 38th-round pick.
The younger Dipoto, a right-hander at Newport Harbor High, had a good enough senior year that Angels scouting director Ric Wilson wanted to draft him to make a point. Dipoto said his son is going to play at UC San Diego.
