Angels add four-time All-Star Upton

The Los Angeles Angels have acquired outfielder Justin Upton from the Detroit Tigers. 

Upton can opt out of the remaining four years and $88.5 million he has left on his deal. The Angels sit just one game back of the Minnesota Twins for the second Wild Card spot.

With the Tigers sitting at 58-74, their window for contending in 2017 is essentially closed. "Justin Upton said last week direction of club would play a role in opt-out decision. His trade pretty much sets direction going forward" tweets Jason Beck of MLB.com

Upton, a four-time All-Star, has 28 home runs, 94 RBI and an OPS of .904 over 125 games.

 

Astros get Maybin from Angels

On the heels of the Upton trade, outfielder Cameron Maybin is now a member of the Houston Astros.

Cozart to remain with Reds

All-Star shortstop Zack Cozart was claimed by an unknown team and pulled back according to Heyman.

Kratz dealt to Yankees

The New York Yankees made a minor move Thursday, acquiring catcher Erik Kratz from the Cleveland Indians in exchange for cash considerations. 

Kratz has not appeared in the major leagues this season. Kratz was with the Blue Jays in 2014 for 34 games, hitting three home runs and adding 10 RBIs before being dealt to the Kansas City Royals.

Yankees catchers Austin Romine and Gary Sanchez are each appealing suspensions they received from last week's brawl with the Detroit Tigers. Kratz could provide depth should the Yankees need an extra body behind the plate.
