Rest-of-Season Projections
Added to 40-man roster
The Angels selected Lugo (hand) to their 40-man roster Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
The Angels acquired Lugo in the trade that sent Luis Garcia to Boston at the deadline, though the former was only able to play one game in the Angels organization before a hand injury cut his season short in early August. Now that he's on the 40-man roster, the 23-year-old outfielder will be protected from the Rule 5 Draft, and the lack of depth in Los Angeles' outfield unit could allow him to make his MLB debut in 2025.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Boosting prospect profile
Lugo has boosted his prospect stock with 10 homers, nine steals and a .302/.396/.651 slash line through 38 games at Double-A Portland this season, reports Alex Speier of The Boston Globe.
ANALYSIS
The 23-year-old's outlook was headed in the wrong direction after he posted a .678 OPS and 28 percent strikeout rate at Portland in 2023, but he focused on attacking pitches in the zone during the offseason, and the work has paid off. Lugo could make his way to Triple-A Worcester sooner than later given his current trajectory.
