I hope I've made a good first impression on this board.

Again, not sure if Newcomb is actually one of the prospects involved, but the Angels interest is definitely not a joke, no. I was just bored last night, and figured I'd pass along some inside info. My favorite team sucks so hearing about a rumor before it even becomes a rumor on the internet is basically the highlight of my baseball season.

Well, don't kill the messenger, but I'm bored and I have a source who says the two teams were in talks today about a potential deal. And then the rumors of a Simmons deal showed up tonight on MLB Trade Rumors even though it says NL West team. It's also possible Newcomb isn't involved. It was Simmons for Aybar & 2 prospects, one of them being the Angels #2 prospect. I just assumed it was Newcomb, but I just checked on mlb.com, and he's actually your #1 prospect. #2 is Christopher Ellis.

I've heard it involves the Angels.

Angels get: Andrelton Simmons Braves get: Erick Aybar/Sean Newcomb/prospect
