Something that still doesn& #39;t add up for me ...

When Bobby Abreu was released, it was because Mike Trout was taking his place. If Jo Adell and Brandon Marsh aren& #39;t yet considered ready, I don& #39;t understand the need to release Albert Pujols right now.

At this moment, with Jared Walsh at 1B and not in the OF, Jon Jay and Juan Lagares are the Angels& #39; right fielders. So basically, Pujols was let go at the expense of Lagares and Jay (minor league invites on the fringes of the 40-man roster), not Ohtani and Walsh.

There& #39;s more here, I think. At the very least, it& #39;s not necessarily as simple as it has been portrayed. Just my thought.
