This is the first of a five part series where I will evaluate the 25-man roster and top prospects of the Los Angeles Angels.
Starters
Designated Hitter- Albert Pujols, R/R
First Base- C.J. Cron, R/R
Third Base- Yunel Escobar, R/R
This is one of the position groups with the most intrigue coming up this season. C.J. Cron is slotted in as the starting first baseman. Albert Pujols is only getting older and as a result, he is going to be the team’s designated hitter once again this season.
When playing without a DH, Cron will most likely be used as a pinch hitter.
