Caden Dana

As is their wont, the Angels promoted Dana from Double-A to the majors for his big-league debut at the beginning of September. He made three starts, largely struggling to the tune of a 9.58 ERA, 2.03 WHIP and 8:7 K:BB in 10.1 innings before getting shut down for the year in what the team said was an effort to make sure he entered the offseason healthy. Dana was the second-youngest player in the majors (behind Jackson Chourio), and he turned 21 in December, so we shouldn't hold his struggles in the majors against him. He logged a 2.52 ERA, 0.94 WHIP and 20.1 K-BB% in 135.2 innings over 23 starts at Double-A, and he was the second-youngest pitcher at that level to log 100-plus innings. He has the secondary pitches to succeed, with a plus slider and a good enough changeup, however his 94-mph fastball was tattooed by big leaguers (.621 wOBA, .481 xwOBA). The 6-foot-4 righty is still young enough to be adding velocity to his fastball, but that is not a given. Dana should spend the majority of the year in the big-league rotation, health and success permitting.
