Angels and Braves Swap Fletcher and Stassi in Trade Deal

David Fletcher's uncertain future with the Angels

Los Angeles Angels infielder David Fletcher has opened up about his demotion to Triple A in April and his uncertain future with the team. Despite hitting .383 with a .901 OPS in Salt Lake, the Angels have called up three other infielders and traded for another instead of promoting Fletcher. Fletcher, who signed a five-year, $26 million extension before the 2021 season, said he hasn't heard much from the organization and doesn't know if they still want him back. He's taking things in stride and focusing on staying healthy and playing well, but acknowledges that his future might not be with the Angels.

David Fletcher's Future with Angels Uncertain After Demotion

The Los Angeles Angels are promoting infielder David Fletcher from Triple-A, where he has been hitting .378/.432/.478 over 197 plate appearances. Fletcher was optioned to Triple-A in April after a slow start to the season, but injuries to Anthony Rendon, Zach Neto, and Gio Urshela have left the Angels thin in the infield. The corresponding move for Fletcher's promotion has not yet been announced, but it marks a mini-overhaul of the Angels' infield, which also includes the recent acquisition of Eduardo Escobar.

Angels promote No. 2 prospect Zach Neto, option David Fletcher.

The Los Angeles Angels have promoted top prospect Zach Neto, their first-round pick from the 2022 draft, to be their everyday shortstop. In a corresponding move, the Angels have optioned David Fletcher to Triple-A. Neto has never played above Double-A but has been impressive in the minor leagues, while Fletcher has struggled with his bat after signing a five-year, $26MM extension. Fletcher's demotion could be temporary, and he may return as a utilityman, while Neto could have the shortstop position for years to come if he performs well.

Angels promote top prospect Zach Neto, demote David Fletcher.

The Los Angeles Angels have promoted Zach Neto, their 2022 draft pick, to the major leagues and installed him as their regular shortstop, making him the first player from the 2022 draft to reach the majors. Neto was hitting .444 with a 1.374 OPS at Double-A, including three home runs. To make room for Neto, the Angels optioned David Fletcher, who had dropped on the depth chart. The Angels have not had a true shortstop this season, and Neto's flashy and rangy defensive ability was a factor in the decision to bring him up.
