The Angels reassigned Campero to minor-league camp Saturday. Campero logged 66 plate appearances over 28 games in the majors 2025, but with the Angels outfield in good health as Opening Day approaches, he never seemed to have much of a chance at breaking camp with the big club. The 28-year-old is likely to begin the season at Triple-A Salt Lake, where he'll likely take on an everyday role.
The Angels re-signed Campero to a minor-league contract Wednesday. The Halos non-tendered Campero earlier this month but have now brought him back on a minor-league pact. Campero posted a .618 OPS over 66 plate appearances in the majors in 2025 and offers the ability to handle all three outfield spots. He'll likely begin next season at Triple-A Salt Lake.
Campero was non-tendered by the Angels on Friday. The 28-year-old outfielder split most his time between Triple-A Salt Lake and the majors during the 2025 regular season, though he ended the campaign on the 10-day injured list due to a left ankle sprain that he sustained in mid-August. He posted an .875 OPS across 164 plate appearances in Triple-A and a .618 OPS over 66 plate appearances in the majors. Once he's fully recovered from his ankle injury, Campero will look to catch on with a team in need of depth in the outfield.
