News emerged over the weekend that the Los Angeles Dodgers would make a very ‘aggressive’ offer to sign Angels star Mike Trout. According to Z101Digital, The Los Angeles franchise would be willing to include its best prospects in an attempt to acquire the 32-year-old hitter through a trade.
The Angels don’t want to let Trout go
Despite the rumors, the Angels intend to keep Mike Trout for one more season as general manager Perry Minasian rejected inquiries from several big teams in recent days, according to Nightingale. Trout’s name is one of the most talked about every offseason, but the chances of him coming out in 2024 are very low.

In 2019, Mike Trout signed a 12-year contract in exchange for $426.5 million guaranteed, including a $20 million signing bonus. At the time it was the most lucrative contract in the history of the Major Leagues and it has a clause that prevents him from being transferred to another team.
But the Angels’ situation could force the front office to listen to offers for one of the best players in the league since they have failed to qualify for the playoffs in the last six years. Trout has around $250 million left on his million-dollar contract he signed in 2019.
