Larnach/Avina dropped on Fantrax.

I lack in INF depth and traded a couple solid RP, so this trade addresses these problems. I have some OF depth, so Larnach is expendable and as much as Avina's ability to cut K's and hammer baseballs intrigues me, I feel a greater need to acquire the other pieces.

Great idea, James, thanks for the easy deal.

[Angels GM (James)]

Angels accept and both Freeman and Wilson have been dropped.

My infield is largely made up of players who play 155+ games (barring injury concerns) and Freeman doesn't serve my depth needs as well as an additional OF bat does. My outfield is largely comprised of injury prone players (or possible platoon risks) so bringing in another bat to provide coverage is immensely valuable for me.

I think that my bullpen is strong enough (especially with Hudson signing today) to withstand losing Wilson's holds and Avina seems like a fun prospect to dream on.
