In the deal the LA Angels got a left-handed pitcher in Patrick Sandoval who had a lot of promise, but was still in Single-A when the Angels acquired him. Sandoval quickly showed that Billy Eppler made a good decision in asking for the lefty in the trade.
Sandoval continued to rise u in the Angels minor league system in 2019 despite his numbers not being so stellar. The Angels no doubtedly saw a lefty-handed starter with a strong mental approach. Sandoval was called up Monday morning to make his major league debut against the Cincinnati Reds and the youngster was up to the challenge.
