Angels interim GM John Mozeliak discussed the team’s upcoming trade deadline strategy as they prepare to face his former team, the Cardinals. While he indicated openness to exploring trades for controllable assets like pitchers Reid Detmers and José Soriano, he emphasized the importance of understanding potential returns. The Angels are focused on building competitiveness by 2027, despite their current status as the AL’s worst team and a low-ranked farm system. Mozeliak’s autonomy and the possibility of trading key players remain uncertain under owner Arte Moreno’s influence.
