The Los Angeles Angels have been one of the worst teams in Major League Baseball over the last few years, as they haven’t made the playoffs since 2014.
Last season was no different as they finished 63-99, which left them in last place in the AL West.
The Angels seem to be trying to turn the tide so far this offseason, as they’ve already made a lot of moves.
MLB analyst Sam Bloom revealed his thoughts on how the Angels will approach the rest of the offseason.
“I definitely think they’re still going to be aggressive,” Bloom said, via Foul Territory .

The Angels have made more moves so far this offseason than any other MLB team.
Some of the free agent signings include Kyle Hendricks, Travis d’Arnaud and Kevin Newman, and they were traded for Jorge Soler and Scott Kingery.
Those frequent moves continued as the biggest free agent to date, pitcher Yusei Kikuchi, signed a three-year, $63 million contract.
Bloom said he believes the Angels will remain active, but he thinks it will involve more trades than signing free agents.
Some of the players he mentioned as being open to a deal include Tyler Anderson, Taylor Ward and Luis Rengifo.
Bloom also said the Angels would be willing to deal some of their top prospects, but would need a big name like Garrett Crochet or Vladimir Guerrero Jr. in return.
The Angels have won one World Series title in franchise history, and they need to make a few more big accomplishments if they want to contend in 2025.
