Overview
- Multiple reports indicate the Angels are receptive to trade proposals for both outfielders, with no agreement in place.
- Morosi assesses a better than 50/50 likelihood that Los Angeles moves one of the two established bats this offseason.
- Both players are entering arbitration with one year of club control, so teams must trade to secure their 2026 services.
- Philadelphia is highlighted as a logical fit given uncertainty around Nick Castellanos, Alec Bohm, Kyle Schwarber and Harrison Bader.
- Adell hit 37 home runs with 98 RBIs and Ward hit 36 with 103, and interested clubs may prefer a prospect trade over pricier free agents such as Kyle Tucker, with the Mets, Giants and Guardians also mentioned.
