For the LA Angels it fills a big hole at least for the time being as Kinsler is a second baseman with a ton of experience who will fit nicely into a line-up that now includes two-time MVP Mike Trout, 600 home run club member, Albert Pujols and former teammate outfielder Justin Upton.
Not only will Kinsler be able to be you reunited with Upton, but he will team with Andrelton Simmons to form a very formidable double-play combination. The Angels first became interested in Kinsler in recent days and it kept growing because of several factors. First of all Kinsler would not cost much in the way of prospects compared to some other potential candidates.
