Scott Boras praises Stan Kroenke after Angels purchase agreement

Agent Scott Boras endorsed Stan Kroenke following the agreement to purchase a controlling interest in the Angels from Arte Moreno. Boras characterized Kroenke as an ideal owner based on his track record of championships across professional football, basketball, soccer, and hockey. Players and agents expect the ownership change to shift the franchise’s perception among prospective free agents. While the Angels previously struggled to establish a winning identity, the transition to Kroenke’s ownership is anticipated to influence future recruitment. Boras, who previously negotiated with Moreno on contracts for Gerrit Cole and Anthony Rendon, now prepares to engage with a new ownership structure. The agent currently represents current Angels roster member Yusei Kikuchi and maintains an interest in the team's long-term competitive trajectory.
