Angels prospect Nate Smith will play for US Team in 2016 All-Star Futures Game

With Mike Trout holding a commanding lead among outfielders in AL All-Star voting, it's fair to assume the 2-time All-Star MVP is a lock to represent the Angels down in San Diego come the 2016 All-Star Break. On Tuesday, we found out another Angel will be joining him.
