Los Angeles Angels 2nd round pick has local flavor

On Friday the Los Angeles Angels signed Griffin Canning yesterday, one day after signing the first pick Jordon Adell. With these top two picks now in the Angels fold, the team will focus on signing as many as their later round picks in hopes of further strengthening their farm system.

The eventual hope is that they both will be productive major leaguers. Canning was at the Big “A” last night and was shown on the Jumbotron being interviewed by Victor Rojas and Mark Gubicza of Fox Sports West early in the game.

Canning just finished his junior season at UCLA went 7-4 with a 2.
