Angels on brink of hiring former superstar player as next manager

The Angels have been zeroed in on finding their manager as soon as possible this off season, and it seems like the organization is getting close to finalizing a deal with their former MLB legend. Sam Blum and Katie Woo of The Athletic reported Friday afternoon, “The meeting with the three-time MVP is believed to have gone very well, and the two sides are having preliminary discussions on a deal, though there is no agreement yet, according to a league source. An announcement is not expected to be imminent.”

As the off season began, there were a handful of names connected to the Angels and their opening at the top step of the dugout.
