The hot rumor was that Torii Hunter was going to sign with the Chicago White Sox, but out of the blue, he signed with the Anaheim Angels. Was it so “out of the blue”? Perhaps not. The Angels made one other move before they signed Hunter, trading Orlando Cabrera for Jon Garland of the White Sox. So, the only thing that changed before he went from a future White Sock (?) to an Angel was Garland moving from Chicago to Anaheim. Do I need to paint you a picture?
I’m sure the 15 million additional dollars had something to do with it too.
Fun Garland:Hunter fact: Torii Hunter has faced Garland the 3rd most of all pitchers in his career.
