MLB: Detroit Tigers at Atlanta Braves Brett Davis-USA TODAY Sports

Of course as soon as I write an article saying it might be a slow start, the Angels offseaosn starts off with a bang, curious to see what they gave up. Maybin was a target of mine last offseason.

Maybin has played for a few teams in MLB, most recently the Detroit Tigers. He put up a OPS of .801 in 2016 with 1.9 bWAR. He’s primarily played CF his entire career, but Rosenthal is already noting that he’d play LF for the Angels, because of one guy named Mike Trout.
