LA Angels: Three Players Exceeding Expectations this Spring Training

Dillon Peters is a pitcher with minimal major league experience who the LA Angels acquired in the off-season from the Florida Marlins for next to nothing. Peters is left-handed which always makes a pitcher a little more valuable. Angels general manager Billy Eppler saw something in Peters mechanics that made him think that Peters may be a diamond in the rough.

So far Peters has looked pretty good in the Spring through two appearances. Peters got the Spring Training Opener nod pitching two scoreless innings giving up only one hit and striking out one batter. Peters then pitched on Thursday in relief of Tyler Skaggs and pitched two innings again giving two runs only one that was earned and striking one batter.
