The minors are entering their last 10 days of the season, but with the Baysox in a playoff chase, and Angle having a successful A+ season, the decision was made to bring the swift-footed left hander hitter up to AA. Angle batted .289 in the pitcher dominant Carolina League, finishing in the top 5 in hitting, OBP .370, and SB 40.
It was announced last week Angle will partake in the highly esteemed Arizona Fall League this Autumn. Angle will actually be on the same team as 2009 #1 overall pick Stephen Strasburg as the Nationals and Orioles representavtive will play for the Phoenix Desert Dogs.
