Angels Promote Aldegheri and Dana to Majors

The Los Angeles Angels have promoted two promising pitchers, Samuel Aldegheri and Caden Dana, to the majors. Aldegheri, a 22-year-old left-hander and the first Italian-born and raised player to pitch in the big leagues, had a rough debut against the Seattle Mariners, allowing seven runs, though only two were earned. In contrast, Dana, a 20-year-old right-hander, will make his debut on Sunday after an impressive season in Double-A, where he posted a 2.52 ERA over 135.2 innings. The Angels acquired Aldegheri from the Phillies in a trade involving Carlos Estévez and have high hopes for his future development. Both pitchers are seen as key parts of the Angels' rotation as the team looks forward to the 2025 season. The Angels currently sit at the bottom of the AL West with a 54-79 record.
