Fletcher added some more information.

Manny Banuelos was a top 30 prospect 5 years ago and never panned out. #Angels buy another lottery ticket.

Banuelos is just 25-years-old and has spent a majority of his career in the minor leagues. This season he has spent time in Single-A, Double-A and Triple-A posting a record of 0-5 with a 5.33 ERA.

Anaheim is hoping that Banuelos can use this off-season to get back on track and contribute to the club next season. The Halos are trying to build some value to their roster so they can acquire as much talent as possible.
