The Southern California native was released by the Detroit Tigers on June 3 and joins his third organization in a pro career that began in 2017.
Continuing their season-long trend of giving second chances to former heralded prospects whose careers have fallen on hard times, the Angels have signed former Milwaukee Brewers and Detroit Tigers infielder Keston Hiura to a minor league contract.
Hiura needed just two years to reach the major leagues. He batted .303 with 19 home runs in 84 games as a rookie, and appeared poised to become the Brewers' second baseman for years to come. The Detroit Tigers signed Hiura as a free agent on Feb. 19 but released him last week after Hiura batted .232 in 49 Triple-A games.
