Neto, the Angels’ first-round draft pick last July, was the starting shortstop for a split-squad game Sunday, his seventh game this spring.
TEMPE, Ariz. — Zach Neto isn’t simply getting the proverbial cup of coffee in Angels spring training.
Neto, 22, was the Angels’ first-round draft pick last July. The Angels had him play a week at Class-A before moving him to Double-A. Giving him an invitation to major-league camp is further evidence they are aggressively testing him. As Neto prepared to head across the Valley for his first start in a big-league exhibition, he said the whole experience has been positive.
One of the questions about Neto is whether his unconventional swing will play in the big leagues. He has an exaggerated leg kick, although he cuts it down with two strikes. He hit .320 with an .874 OPS in 136 plate appearances at Double-A last season.
