Kole Calhoun outfielder for the Los Angeles Angels haas signed a a 3 year extension with the franchise.

Kole Calhoun is one of the best players on the Angels roster. Especially these last two years the Angels have been in postseason limbo.

He is the guy you want on your team.

For example, he is the kind of guy that during games makes plays in clutch moments. Also, he is fun to be around, energetic, and respectful.

Kole Calhoun is the player that gains momentum the team needs, to move in the right direction during the game.

Proof of his high caliber play is that he won a gold glove in 2015, according to espn.com.

Calhouns’ contract is worth $26 million over 3 years.

He understands they can compete with anyone. All they need to do is just be able to stay healthy throughout the season.

Everything takes time and GM Billy Eppler is doing his best to help lead this organization back to playoff contention.

The Los Angeles Angels are a playoff contending team despite having one of their worst seasons this past year. Everything takes time, it is a process.

It doesn’t sound right to say the Angels are in the rebuilding process.

Especially with Kole Calhoun and Mike Trout playing next to each other in the outfield.

Los Angeles has talent on the whole team and Kole Calhoun is one of those talents. He is a leader that with his experience can help mentor young players.

Also, he and the Angels need to be consistent throughout the year with everything.

They need to be consistent with their health, their defense, and their contact with the bat at the plate.
