I don't think him struggling a bit during first year will impact his value that much. 
Most rookies struggle. Look at Trout. 

Okay fine, so then for two years while Trout is in his prime we likely will see Marsh sitting on the bech. Cool with that? And don't say platoon. 

Why would he be on the bench for TWO years?

The Angels should not spend assets (money and prospects) on Lindor if it prevents them from securing the pitching they need.

If they can still get pitching, then by all means pursue this guy.  He is a great player.

At least wait until July, and if Marsh is here and playing well, then if it’s right a trade could be in play.

With the departure of Simmons, SS is an obvious position of need for the Angels.  Would Luis Rengifo or someone of that trade value tier be enough for one year of Lindor?

Absolutely, yes.

If the Angels threw in Jo Adell.

who is our 3rd OFer right now?  Taylor Ward?  

Don't say platoon because?  Platoons happen all the time and they work.  The guy most likely to lose at bats in a platoon is Upton.

Do both Adell and Marsh need a full year in AAA (if there is a full year)?  I’d say get a tradable LF if it’s in the budget.

Adell for sure and Marsh hasn't even played AAA yet but he probably has a higher floor and more likely to be ready.  

That's why I like a guy such as Profar who still has some upside considering his age and can play several positions.

The best part about all of this is the fact, not just here, its on the other sites. is that people are willing to Trade Marsh/Adell, C-Rod, and another top prospect. I'm just shitting here shaking my head, You could probably acquire a top of the arm pitcher for that price....

Is the off season over yet?

I get it. Most people rather trade for Lindor, sign him to 300mil/ 10 yrs contract and than come into next year looking for pitching,.

On Arte?  If he wants to make a winner and can afford it (I think so) he can do it this year.  If trading top prospects puts the team over the top, great.  But it would take an infusion of FA dollars to get where that would make sense.
