Caden Dana Set for MLB Debut with Angels

Caden Dana, a 20-year-old pitcher and the Angels' top prospect, is set to make his Major League Baseball debut on Sunday against the Seattle Mariners. Following a successful season with the Double-A Rocket City Trash Pandas, where he posted a 9-7 record and a 2.52 ERA, Dana received the call-up after a golf outing, which he described as a surreal moment filled with shock and emotion. He will become the youngest starting pitcher for the Angels since Frank Tanana in 1973. Former MLB players shared their debut experiences, highlighting the mix of excitement and nerves that accompany such a significant milestone. Dana's strong performance in the minors, including leading the Southern League in strikeouts, has paved the way for this opportunity without needing to pass through Triple-A. As the Angels currently sit in second-to-last place in the American League, Dana's debut brings hope for the team's future.
