J. Wilson December 8, 2011 According to analysts, Pujols was regarded as the best offensive player (along with arguably being the best player of this generation) and Wilson being the best pitcher on the market. Pujols had been a mainstay in the St. Louis Cardinals organization for 11 years prior to the signing and the Angels reportedly came into the negotiations at the last minute to sign the prized free agent. All media speculation prior to Dec 8 surrounding Pujols was centered around the Cardinals and Miami Marlins, while not as much as the Marlins, the Angels reported offer of $254 million over 10 years was much more than the reported offer by the Cardinals and had a full no-trade clause.http://miamiherald.typepad.com/fish_bytes/2011/12/angels-get-pujols-cj-wilson-too.html Angels -- not Marlins -- get Pujols and C.J.

Spring training thumb|left|Tempe Diablo Stadium before a Spring training game The Cactus League slate of games for the Angels began on Monday 1, March on the road against Oakland, a 9–1 Angels victory. Their first home game at Tempe Diablo Stadium was a 6–2 win on Tuesday, March 6 against the Chicago White Sox. Spring training notes The 2012 season marks the Angels 20th season at Tempe Diablo Stadium in Tempe, Arizona and the 7th season since the venue's massive renovations were completed in 2006. The Angels came into the Spring with high expectations for the following 2012 campaign due to the large amount of money spent by owner Arte Moreno in the offseason signing slugger Albert Pujols and lefty C. J. Wilson. Both prized acquisitions played in the Angels first spring game against the Athletics and the two did not disappoint: Pujols went 2 for three with 1 run scored and 1 run batted in while Wilson threw 2 complete innings with no runs and giving up only one hit. Because of the high expectations for the Angels in 2012, the Angels are expecting larger than usual crowds in Tempe this spring. One of the biggest questions surrounding the Angels franchise going into the Spring training was whether or not Kendrys Morales would make a comeback from breaking his ankle in 2010. Morales played in his first baseball game in nearly two years on March 16, 2012 in a minor league game and played in his first major league game of any kind on March 22.http://www.cbssports.com/mlb/blog/eye-on-baseball/17845448/kendrys-morales-plays-in-a-minor-league-game MLB Baseball - News, Scores, Stats, Standings, and Rumors - Major League Baseball In that game, Morales went two for three with a run scored and was described by Angels personnel and Morales as a large step forward for the slugger.http://losangeles.angels.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20120322&content_id=27510568&vkey=news_ana&c_id=ana Kendrys Morales in Halos' lineup for first time since '10, collects two hits March 23, 2012 https://web.archive.org/web/20120325044936/http://losangeles.angels.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20120322&content_id=27510568&vkey=news_ana&c_id=ana March 25, 2012 dead On March 23, in a split squad game against the Cleveland Indians in Goodyear, Morales again went two for three with a run scored in only his second game of the spring, but this time with his first home run since the 2010 regular season. http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20120323&content_id=27553614&vkey=news_mlb&c_id=mlb dead https://web.archive.org/web/20120327024938/http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20120323&content_id=27553614&vkey=news_mlb&c_id=mlb 2012-03-27 Spring Training: Kendrys Morales homers for Angels in second game back MLB.com: News According to the Angels radio broadcaster Terry Smith, the Angels have already sold out six home games at Tempe Diablo Stadium.
