Reports surfaced earlier in the day that Anaheim and the Cubs were discussing a deal. For the Cubs they have completed a deal with New York Yankees earlier for Aroldis Chapman to bolster their bullpen.

For the Angels they are able to sell two assets in regards to Smith and Hector Santiago as they look forward to the future. Angels fan what do you think of the move?
