    Angels next GM will face plenty of roster questions to end playoff drought
    The Angels next general manager will likely have a busy offseason.
    Billy Eppler was fired on Sunday, following five straight losing seasons that no doubt frustrated owner Arte Moreno as well as the fans.
    Mike Trout is certainly frustrated, as he said on Saturday that the time is now for the Angels to do what it takes to get to the postseason. They haven’t been there since 2014, the only postseason appearance in Trout’s nine full seasons.
