The Los Angeles Angels aren't wasting any time in their search for a new general manager.

Fletcher adds that the Halos are trying to hire a new GM right after the season ends, but they're open to finalizing a deal before the conclusion of the 2015 campaign.

A bit more about the Angels' search, from Fletcher:

It's clear the Angels want to have as much time as possible to re-tool and build what they hope will be a stronger team in 2016, no matter what happens over the course of this final month.

Of the external candidates who have been interviewed so far, none has been a major league general manager before, the source said. The Angels are planning to speak to at least some candidates with experience in that position, according to a source.

Entering play Tuesday the Angels sit at 65-66 and in need of a hot streak to get back into the thick of the postseason picture.
