Angels players of the month
The Angels announced their organizational players of the month, which means these are the top minor-league guys, not the guys who distinguished themselves on the major-league level. Those honored for April:
Triple-A Salt Lake INF Matt Brown was named the Player of the Month after batting .426 (43/101) with 25 runs scored, 10 doubles, three triples, six home runs and 22 RBI in 23 games; RHP Mason Tobin, who was 2-0 with a 0.00 ERA (15 IP - 0 ER) and one complete game shutout, eight hits, three walks and eight strikeouts in three starts for single-A Cedar Rapids, was named Pitcher of the Month; and triple-A Salt Lake OF Brad Coon was named Defensive Player of the Month, after committing no errors in 57 total chances (55 PO/2 A) in 21 games.
