The Angels selected Davis' contract from Triple-A Salt Lake on Thursday.
Davis was off to a nice start with Salt Lake, slashing .297/.357/.487 with two home runs and 11 RBI in 10 contests. While the 31-year-old could see occasional playing time at third base while Yoan Moncada (thumb) is sidelined, Davis is likely to operate mostly in a reserve role.
Davis went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run Saturday in a Cactus League win over Milwaukee.
Davis plated the final two runs of the game with a blast to center field in the seventh inning. It was the first long ball of the spring for the veteran infielder, who is in camp as a non-roster invitee. Davis has struggled with a .182/.217/.364 slash line so far this spring, though he has a chance of making the Opening Day roster due in part to injuries to Anthony Rendon (hip), Zach Neto (shoulder) and Luis Rengifo (hamstring).
The Angels signed Davis to a minor-league contract Friday that includes an invitation to spring training, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.
Davis suffered through a terrible 2024 campaign, slashing only .218/.293/.338 with four home runs across 46 contests between the Athletics and Yankees. The 31-year-old had a career .775 OPS prior to last season, however, so nabbing him on a minor-league pact is a sensible move by the Halos. Davis could provide depth at the corner infield spots and also left field.
