LA Angels All-Decade Team: Justin Upton Ended The Left Field Black Hole

Even though he hasn’t been the best version of himself since joining the LA Angels, Justin Upton is still lightyears ahead of his competition to be the all-decade left fielder in Anaheim. Over the past few years, he gave the Angels a true trio of solid outfielders when he was healthy.

The Angels left fielders this decade include names like Vernon Wells, Peter Bourjos (I considered him), Raul Ibanez, JB Shuck, Josh Hamilton (oh what could have been), and Matt Joyce. Those names make it obvious that Justin Upton is an easy choice for this recognition.
