This is 100% false. Beltre already did an interview (I think years ago) about the teams interested and involved and said the Angels were one of them with money on the table.

And they only offered five years and would not commit to a 6th year.

He will be a monster hitter in front of Trout. Ohtani behind Mike, me likey, me likey a lot!

And imagine the day when Adell hits behind those three!!!! OMG!!!

Dude is a star. Best non-pitcher in MLB after Trout, Yelich, and Bellinger,

Obviously still need pitching. Perhaps Rendon make us a better destination?

Do we forfeit our 1st round pick with this signing?

I believe its a 2nd round draft pick, but not 100 percent sure.

Fantastic signing, i would wager right now that this turns out a much better singing than Cole.
Our infield will be freaking amazing defensively.

No

Congratulations to everyone that wanted this. It's not what I would've done, but man am I pumped to have Rendon in an Angels uniform.

So the Angels don't want to sign Beltre to a 6/96 deal when he did nothing but put up 5,6 and 7 war seasons but they are fine giving Rendon 7 years and like 2 1/2 times the money. Crazy how bad not signing Beltre was. What an absolute steal of a player. Glad to have Rendon but like others have stated, more needs to be done.

you suck at trolling.

Trout, Rendon, Ohtani....

I need a nap 

[Jay]

Outstanding.

[failos]

Hmm only an All star one time in his career? Reeks of a GMJ panic move.

This was your post: So the Angels don't want to sign Beltre

Again, 100% false. Don't derail the thread and excitement for everyone you somber mook.

It’s a lot of money but hey, that’s the market. Stoked for this!

Dude, its not done, i guarantee you that.  Ground ball pitchers like Kuechel suddenly look a lot better with that infield behind them.

Great news !! Offseason back on track.
