Angels add Vargas Mariners get Morales

[RedlegJake]

Anaheim keeps tuning up a team adding starter Jason Vargas in a trade sending Kendrys Morales to Seattle. This frees up the Angels bat logjam and adds a quality arm to their rotation. Seattle needed a hitter so the deal is a win win but Anaheim imo benefits most. Gotta see the Rangers inability to get anything done and Anaheims spending and dealing as a shift of power. Which LA team is spending their hundreds of millions best?

I think the Angels are stockpiling mediocre to average arms. But you certainly can't fault them for being inactive. I think the Angels will be a much better team than the Dodgers next year, but who knows, if the Dodgers stay healthy and some of their veterans bounce back, both of these teams could be juggernauts. I think it's more likely both win around 90-some games, make the playoffs as a Wild Card, and get bounced by a deeper, younger team.
