Outfielder Justin Upton is staying with the Los Angeles Angels, agreeing to a new five-year, $106-million US contract. The Angels announced the deal Thursday with Upton, their late-season trade acquisition. Upton was owed $88.5 million over the next four seasons as part of a six-year deal worth $132.75 million he signed with the Detroit Tigers. With a new contract that supersedes his old deal, Upton decided to stay. He fits ideally in the Angels' outfielder alongside Mike Trout and Kole Calhoun.
