Cron and Randal Grichuk talk about rejoining the Angels after being traded by the Colorado Rockies on Sunday. Roughly six hours after their 3-2 win over the Toronto Blue Jays on Sunday, the Angels announced they had acquired outfielder Randal Grichuk, infielder C.J. Cron and cash considerations from the Colorado Rockies in exchange for minor league pitchers Mason Albright and Jake Madden. Rather than wonder whether the Angels could maybe make their outfield work by platooning other position players, Minasian made a reunion with Grichuk happen. The Angels traded Cron to the Tampa Bay Rays in February 2018 in a deal that ultimately sent Luis Rengifo to Anaheim.
