Do not have prospects

We have enough to get any of those guys.

Agreed. What you’ll typically see is teams give up some combo of their #2, 10, 15, 20…and a major league player. Angels’ guys are a little less valuable but they still have guys. If the Angels called and offered Detmers, Bachman, Guzman, and Adams or swap Guzman and Adams with Adell and a low level guy and of course they’re in the conversation. It’s not that they don’t have it, it’s how much depth you have to deal from.

not sure about that for Suarez.  He seems like the perfect 4/5 guy.  Three solid but not great pitches.  One that actually really good in his change piece.  People need to remember he's 24.  It feels like he's been around forever but he's still not a finished product.  

I actually think Suarez is most valuable if he’s your depth guy. Maybe his new pitch mix allows him to stick at the very end of the rotation, but in my opinion they are best suited when he is a depth piece and not throwing 25 times a season.

As a non-contender and team that does not know where they are going, we don't. Farm system does not have 1 player in top 100. Other teams have so much more to offer. You cannot go to trade market and compete. Again, this is my opinion. Off season Minasian and Arte will have to decide what road they will take. Hopefully a new road. So I do not get my hopes up at deadline halos may move a few pieces (Loup I hope) but nothing major will happen. Contenders will make big splash not all so rans.

Suarez pitched really well last 9 to 10 starts last year. He will be given opportunity this year. At 24 still learning his craft and hopefully getting better.

Similar to former Angel farmhand Bo Way

So they paid nothing? Their 21st ranked prospect and change?

He's a free agent at the end of the year.  Sikkema is a former first round pick but has lost time due to injury

Interesting. He wasn’t even ranked in top 30 by mlb at the start of the season.

It is just a rental after all. A decent one, but he's a free agent after this season. 

[Angelsfan1984]

wonder what the return for ward would be. Whatever it is, I’ll take it!

When was the last time the Angels sold a non rental?

Brian Goodwin in 2020.

He had 1.5 years remaining before free agency when he was dealt, though the Reds non-tendered him that offseason.
