No. 1 treat the front office could give LA Angels fans this offseason: Ketel Marte

Ketel Marte would be the ultimate treat for LA Angels fans this offseason.

The Diamondbacks have seemed to be stingy about trading Marte in the past, but he should still absolutely be on the trade block. What do the Diamondbacks have going for them right now? Not much, but what would they have going for them if they traded their other players with high trade value, and not just Eduardo Escobar, for a bounty of prospects?

They’d have a lot suddenly going for them. They already have a good farm. The Angels unfortunately don’t have a good farm, but there are still some valuable prospects in their system for sure.

If Marte, who’s hit .318/.374/.543 (.917 OPS) these past three years with 48 home runs in 279 games came to the Angels, they would no longer have a need at shortstop and would have one of the best lineups in baseball when healthy.

It would be tough to do, but would be better than any treat we could ever get for Halloween.
