Now, news has broken that the LA Angels are the 29-year-old slugger’s preferred destination. Jerry Crasnick of ESPN reported that the Los Angeles native has the Halos “No. 1 on his wish list”.
There is a lot for the Halos to consider when it comes to Moustakas. First, the salary he’d likely demand would be in the five-year, $90 million range. While the Halos can certainly afford that, they still have huge holes at second and first base that they need to address.
General manager Billy Eppler made it public knowledge that he is confident in their current starters.
