No. 1 outfielder for the LA Angels to trade for and pair with Mike Trout: Mitch Haniger

Mitch Haniger is the best fit to pair with Mike Trout on the LA Angels due to him being exactly what they need.

They need a star right fielder, and Haniger isn’t too far from that. He’s having a really good year, recording 22 homers and 58 RBI with a .506 slugging percentage.

An outfield of Upton in left, Trout in center, and Haniger in right would be deadly. On top of that, they would be swiping him from a divisional opponent that has for some reason given the Halos fits this year.

I don’t mind Taylor Ward in right field, but I’d rather have him as a quality option off of the bench with Haniger starting in right.

The former All-Star would be a great option for the Halos, as would the other two in this list. The Angels aren’t so sure they want to sell just yet, and need to have outfielders in mind for the deadline.
