With the news of Anthony Rendon and the Angels approaching a buyout for the final season of his albatross contract, the team is going to have newfound payroll flexibility this offseason. Arte Moreno has a track record of going after star position players in free agency (and the Angels have been linked to one of the best) but the right move may be acquiring an ace for their rotation on the trade market and promptly extending them. These three options are the cream of the crop for the Angels, and could all lead their rotation for the rest of the decade if the Angels can pull off their second heist for a starter this winter.
