Tommy La Stella: Should the Halos consider trading him?

With Major League Baseball and the Player Association working toward an agreement that will grant full service time to active players even if the 2020 season is canceled, it raises the question of whether the Angels should look to trade second baseman Tommy La Stella.

Under normal conditions, La Stella would need to accumulate an additional 115 days of service to reach the six year threshold that would grant him free agent status. Given the current circumstances, had a deal not been reached between MLB and the Union, it’s possible that a shortened season would have precluded La Stella from reaching that mark.
