Teodosio

Teodosio’s season is over. The outfielder appeared in five games while going 1-for-12 in his limited action. If healthy, Teodosio will compete for a bench spot with the Angels during spring training.

The Angels are just winging it at this point, but it’s surprising that Teodosio is sitting against a lefty, especially since manager Ron Washington seems to view him as the team’s best defensive outfielder; all four of Teodosio’s starts have come in center. Mickey Moniak and Jordyn Adams both played right field when they were in the same outfield as Teodosio. Moniak is playing center and Adams right tonight.

Teodosio, 25, is a Clemson product who has turned into a solid player after going undrafted three years ago. He was hitting .276/.339/.418 with five homers and 40 steals for Salt Lake this season, which is a better line than what fellow callup Jordyn Adams amassed. Both are right-handed hitters, so it’s hard to say exactly how they’ll share time in place of Jo Adell, though both could play against lefties. Teodosio seems more worthy of the bulk of the at-bats.
