Angels assets on the right side of 30

The age thirty for a professional baseball player is often an unspeakable word, a date which afterwards he is no longer viewed the same way because well, he’s getting old. And since he’s getting old, he’s probably going to get worse over time and his best days are behind him. Given that present-day aging curves specify that players younger than 30 are usually a good bet to improve or maintain their on-field value, you would want to stockpile as many of those players as you could in order to build a sustainable winner.

For a few years now, the Angels have had very little in the ways of prospects but have had reasons to believe the team would still be solid because of the developing players on the big-league squad. Let’s take a look at the assets the organization has to offer and how long it has to offer them.

In order for to differentiate between each one, here’s a nifty conversion table that relates future value (FV) to wins above replacement (WAR). I’ve gone ahead and made my best estimate FV of each player.
