The Angels and Rockies are in the middle of a three-game series at Coors Field, but that didn’t stop their front offices from negotiating a trade.
Following the Halos’ stunning 25–1 victory against Colorado on Saturday, multiple sources reported that the two teams had agreed to a trade which would send veteran infielder Mike Moustakas to Anaheim in exchange for pitching prospect Connor Van Scoyoc. The Angels later confirmed the deal.
Angels manager Phil Nevin indicated that the team had designated Kevin Padlo for assignment in a corresponding roster move.
