Angels, Giants Competing To Sign Superstar According To Insider
Los Angeles lost Shohei Ohtani in free agency and now is looking for a new ace to help lead its rotation. Somehow there still are two marquee hurlers out there who could help, Blake Snell and Jordan Montgomery.
The Angels have been linked to Snell on multiple occasions this offseason and although a deal hasn’t gotten done yet, Los Angeles still could finalize one. The Angels and San Francisco Giants are seen as the two most likely options for Snell, according to USA Today Sports’ Bob Nightengale.
Snell would be the perfect addition for the Angels at this point. His price tag likely won’t be as high as many expected it to be entering the offseason. With each passing day, he remains available, his asking price could drop.
If it falls to a range that the Angels are comfortable with, he would be the perfect pickup. Los Angeles needs another top-of-the-rotation hurler and Snell certainly fits that description.
