Now in double-A, not much has changed.
Christian Moore spent two entire games at the single-A level before the Angels decided to promote him to the double-A level — he might not last long there either. Moore is absolutely raking for the Rocket City Trash Pandas, and he blasted a walk-off shot last night.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

The game winner was his second home run of the game.
Moore has now appeared in three games for the Trash Pandas at the double-A level. He’s hitting .462 with three home runs and four RBI. This coming after a ridiculous two games at the single-A level. Moore has opened up his professional career with a bang, and he’s certainly generated a lot of buzz in just five total games.
In five games as a pro, Moore is hitting .500 with four home runs.
It’s now officially worth wondering — could the Angels get him to the big leagues this year? Their season is essentially over, so would they call up their top pick as the rosters expand in September? It’s got to be on the table at this point.
Moore was taken eighth overall last month, just three weeks ago. It’s just a matter of time before he heads west to Los Angeles to join former Tennessee Volunteer Ben Joyce with the Angels.
