In this story:
The Major League Baseball world recently received a huge update on Pete Alonso.
New York Mets owner Steve Cohen recently spoke to fans about how "exhausting" his free agency journey has been, especially after their blockbuster signing of Juan Soto.
The Angels are further linked to the Polar Bear via one of ESPN's top MLB insiders after mentioning Alonso's name with the Halos on a recent podcast.
The Angels are also linked to a young player with tons of potential to provide more depth and youth to their outfield. An insider from the Orange County Register provided a name currently on the Arizona Diamondbacks who would be a worthwhile trade target.
And finally, the Halos are also signaling that they want to bolster their bullpen with some free agents per an insider from The Athletic. Despite a busy offseason shortly after the 2024 season ended, there are still some more holes to fill.
