Third baseman Anthony Rendon has agreed to a seven-year, $245 million contract with the Los Angeles Angels, sources tell ESPN's Jeff Passan.
Having fallen short in their bid to sign Gerrit Cole, the Angels wasted little time in turning their sights toward Rendon.
Rendon, 29, was widely considered the top offensive free agent after having a career season with the Washington Nationals in which he emerged as a candidate for the NL's Most Valuable Player.
He led the majors with a career-best 126 RBIs last season and was named to his first All-Star Game.
