The Angels acquire Raisel Iglesias; beef up bullpen for 2021




Locked On Angels - Daily Podcast On The Los Angeles Angels show

Summary: On Tuesday's episode, Locked On Angels host Brent Maguire breaks down the trade that sent Raisel Iglesias to the Angels. Iglesias, one of the best relievers in baseball over the last half-decade, helps beef up an Angels bullpen that was wildly mediocre in 2020 and was recently gutted during the non-tender deadline. The longtime Cincinnati Reds closer will likely take on the same role with the Angels in 2021. Iglesias will make $9.125 million next season before hitting free agency for the first time. In exchange, the Angels sent Noé Ramirez and a Player To Be Named Later or cash considerations to the Reds (the Angels also received cash considerations). -You can follow Brent on Twitter at @bmags94 and the podcast at @LockedOnAngels -Brent's written work can be found at Crashing the Pearly Gates -All highlight audio courtesy of Major League Baseball Learn more about your ad choices.
