The Angels invited minor league left-hander Andrew Lorraine to spring training.
Lorraine, a fourth-round draft choice from Stanford last summer, was 1-2 with a 2.51 ERA, yielding 20 hits and striking out 16 in 28 innings for La Guaira of the Venezuelan League in winter baseball. He was 4-1 with a 1.29 ERA in six starts in Class A Boise last summer.
Lorraine is among 13 non-roster players invited to spring training, including eight pitchers.
