The Los Angeles Angels are expected to be sellers during this summer's MLB trade deadline. With strong seasons from pitchers Reid Detmers and Jose Soriano, the Angels could land a significant return if they trade them before the August 3 deadline. While Mike Trout is likely staying, trading Detmers and Soriano could attract serious offers from teams looking to bolster their pitching. Both pitchers are under club control through 2028, heightening their market value. Analysts suggest now is the optimal time for the Angels to leverage their assets in a seller's market as they sit near the bottom of MLB standings.
