As the Angels approached the trade deadline, it was clear they needed a true third baseman who could both solidly defend and produce at the plate. After trading for two solid relievers, the lineup had to have been the focus for Perry Minasian and the front office. However, they accomplished nothing by trading for Oswald Peraza, and by the end of the season it will be a move that fans are holding over Minasian's head.
While the case for bringing Peraza to Anaheim made sense, it is just not likely to work out for him and the Angels.
