PEORIA, Ariz. -- Angels general manager Billy Eppler is "not optimistic" about making any last-minute additions to the Major League club.
"This is going to be our group," Eppler said Saturday. "If something comes to light, then something comes to light. But we feel good about this club."
Several players are expected to become available in the coming days, either because they are out of options or were signed to Minor League contracts they can opt out of before Opening Day.
Left-handed-hitting outfielder David Murphy, who spent the last two months with the Angels in 2015, opted out of his Minor League contract with Boston on Sunday, and now the Red Sox have 48 hours to either release him or add him to the 25-man roster.
