O’Hoppe, acquired last month at the trade deadline, is not on the active roster, but the Angels want the 22-year-old catcher to gain experience from being in a major league environment.
ANAHEIM — The Angels didn’t bring catcher Logan O’Hoppe to Angel Stadium to play, but they still feel he can gain invaluable experience.
O’Hoppe, 22, was the key player the Angels acquired in the Brandon Marsh trade with the Philadelphia Phillies last month. O’Hoppe immediately shot to the top of the Angels’ prospect list, and he enhanced his status by hitting .306 with 11 home runs and a 1.147 OPS in 29 games with the Angels’ Double-A affiliate.
“I’ve already picked Max’s brain a little bit,” O’Hoppe said. “I hope he doesn’t get too bugged by me. Just trying to get my feet wet and try to just and learn as much as I can. That’s the approach I’ve had my whole career. It won’t change being here.”
