We are in the midst of the final few days before the MLB non-waiver trade deadline hits July 31. Lots of clubs still find themselves stuck in between being buyers and sellers, clogging up the market in the process. One team that has managed to stay beneath the fray has been the Los Angeles Angels. The Angels have already made a number of small but effective moves this week.
While keeping the ledger full with roster moves in terms of call-ups, disabled-list stints, etc, Los Angeles has also been busy dealing.
Just one day after the team placed third baseman David Freese on the DL, it traded for Conor Gillaspie, giving up cash in return.
