The 26-year-old will get his first major-league opportunity, replacing Nick Franklin on both the 40-man and active rosters. He's had some issues with the long ball at Triple-A Salt Lake this year (13 home runs allowed in 97.1 innings), but he's missing bats at a good clip, and most importantly, he can provide length behind Yusmeiro Petit in what will be a bullpen game for the Angels on Saturday.
