Overview
- The Angels, Pirates, White Sox and Blue Jays have shown early interest in the third baseman, according to Romero's report posted Friday.
- Pittsburgh's potential pursuit aligns with an active offseason that already brought in Brandon Lowe via trade and Ryan O'Hearn in free agency.
- Moncada is on the market after the 2025 season, and no agreement has been reported.
- With the Angels in 2025, he hit .234 with 12 home runs and 35 RBIs in 84 games.
- Teams are weighing his upside at third base against recent thumb and knee issues and the fact he has not topped 100 games in a season since 2022, following a 2019 peak of .315 with 25 home runs and 79 RBIs.
