Angels trade for Dodgers’ Pederson, sources say

MLB

The Los Angeles Dodgers, shortly after acquiring star right fielder Mookie Betts from the Boston Red Sox, sent outfielder Joc Pederson to the Los Angeles Angels for infielder Luis Rengifo, sources told ESPN’s Jeff Passan.

Pederson, 27, hit .249 with 36 home runs and 74 RBIs last year for the Dodgers.

Pederson, like Betts, is a free agent after this season. But for one season at least, he will join superstar Mike Trout in an Angels outfield that also includes Justin Upton.

Rengifo, 22, batted .238 with seven home runs and 33 RBIs in 108 games for the Angels last season, splitting time between second base and shortstop.
