Why Not Try Austin Jackson?

Looks like they did try to get him but Jackson turned down their 1yr offer

Michael Saunders wasn't the only outfielder the Angels nearly acquired in recent days. They also made a run at Austin Jackson, a lifelong center fielder who would've factored into a left-field platoon, a source with knowledge of the situation told MLB.com.

 

The Angels offered Jackson a one-year deal believed to be in the neighborhood of $5 million or $6 million, but Jackson's camp, headed by aggressive agent Scott Boras, sought more money. So the Angels moved on, and now, barring a turn of events, it appears they'll stick with what they have until Opening Day.

Wow, just one year? The guy isn't old.

That is beyond infuriating. This team is so clueless sometimes.
