LA Angels: Projecting the 2020 Opening Day roster, Part 1

This time of year, everyone likes predictions. Who is a breakout candidate? Who will have a bounce-back season? How should manager Joe Maddon order is lineup? Who should fill out the team’s bench?

Over a two-part series, I will walk through the process of identifying who should be included on the Angels Opening Day active roster. I will make my selections from the Angels current 40-man roster. In Part 1, I focus on positional players. Check back tomorrow for Part II on the pitching staff.

A new MLB rule allows teams to carry an extra player on their active roster this season, up to 26 from the traditional 25-player limit.
