Walsh could make the Angels' 30-man roster if Matt Thaiss (undisclosed) is unable to play at the start of the season, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Walsh's chances of breaking camp with the big-league club appeared slim after he was optioned to the minors in late March following a rough spring at the plate, and he could still end up off the active roster despite its expansion to 30 players to begin the campaign. However, with Thaiss -- the team's expected backup to Albert Pujols at first base -- yet to report to camp, Walsh could be needed to fill a bench role if Thaiss is unable to play at the outset of the season.
