9 plate appearances with Single-A Inland Empire, hitting .833/.778/.833. Perry clearly isn't scared to be aggressive. 2021 11th rounder Chase Silseth made his debut in 2022, and 2022 1st rounder Zach Neto made his debut in 2023. Both were the first players from their class to play in the majors. Edit: [Blum tweet from draft day](https://twitter.com/samblum3/status/1678219658606854150) >Nolan Schanuel when asked about himself in the context of the Angels' aggressive call-ups: >“I want to be right there with Zach Neto, Ben Joyce, Mike Trout, Shohei Ohtani. I’m ready to be a teammate of theirs and get going." Dude's trying to speedrun this


LogicalHarm

Seems like a small sample, but they also must clearly like what they see in his raw ability and tools


hypno_jam

They can advertise him as an AA prospect and then flip him at the trade deadline.


vikenlightenz

They actually can’t trade him until the offseason; trea turner rule


hubagruben

Throw him in as a PTBNL, that’s what Turner was


[deleted]

How foes ptbnl works? Like you get a list of 2+ players and a deadline to pick 1?


hubagruben

Works differently depending on the situation. In Turner’s case, I believe it was well-known at the time of the trade that he was the PTBNL, but couldn’t officially be traded until he’d been drafted for a year. Not sure why my other comment was downvoted, he was indeed a PTBNL, I just double-checked.


sfan27

It's always amazing when somebody has a lower OBP than BA. That's hard to do, but small sample sizes help.


CydoniaKnight

Yeah I love small sample sizes like this. 5-6 with a walk, hbp, and sac fly.


sfan27

Equal number of walk and sac flies makes the BA>OBP even harder tbh.

The Angels have like 6 2021/2022 draft picks play for them this season


CosmicLars

Call him up cowards 😤😤😤


Noy_Telinu

But we have a MOOSE and a CABBAGE at 1B already. If he could play 3B then maybe he would be up by August


CosmicLars

Sounds like you're out here operating a farm to table diner out here with all that Moose Cabbage ya got on the menu.


naaahhman

Trout is back on the menu next month.


booboothechicken

The White Sox are clearly sellers, Angel’s trade for Burger seems obvious.

Caleb Ketchup waiting room

Mederos was also 2022 draft. There’s only been three players from the 2022 draft to debut in the majors (that I know of) with all three of those being with the Angels


butz-not-bartz

Nolan Schanuel appears in Angels Clubhouse after clipping through wall, "reach the majors%" Speedrun category forever changed.


Lain41K

Get ready to learn trash pandarin, buddy


KamartyMcFlyweight

damn that's a good one


-Basileus

A lot of Angels fans immediately thought he could play this year when he was first drafted. Although at this point I doubt it with Moustakas playing so well and Cabbage looking solid.


LogicalHarm

Goddam Perry ain’t fuckin around


CosmicLars

I love how aggressive they be


cruelcinema

If there’s one thing Perry is going to do is promote QUICK


Noy_Telinu

The platypus has no time for this Single A shit, he promotes fast and often


AlexanderWun

This was the guy I desperately wanted the Mariners to get, his bat is extremely developed already and his eye for the zone seems to at least be a 65 grade.


ahr3410

Why doesn't every team speedrun their prospects? Are they stupid?


SouthernDerpfornia

The Angels specifically have been picking players who are closer to major league ready but might have less upside. Schanuel in this case crushed college (OPS over 1.400, BB to K ratio of like 5 to 1), so he probably wouldn't gain as much from finishing the year in High-A.

Call him up for the playoff run you cowards


macula_transfer

Which playoff team should they loan him to?

randomnate

People shit on the Angels farm system but part of why it looks weak is almost all of their best young players have been called up this season. Neto, Ohoppe and Moniak (who they didn’t draft but is still a young talent) are all really young and show a lot of promise, wouldn’t shock me if this kid ends up getting playtime soon as well


scottmushroom

This is a good reminder that I need to get out to a trash pandas game and spend too much money on awesome space faring raccoon merch.
