Not long after I noted all the things Mike Trout is doing in camp to make us believe he is Mike Trout again his Cactus League numbers started to drop. Now facing a batting line of .219/.286/.344 and yet to hit his first home run in 2026, people are getting worried about his continued decline.
It is abundantly clear the Angels could use some depth in the rotation. Grayson Rodriguez has not yet looked the part of an MLB regular and Alek Manoah's struggles have been well documented.
Nine days from now the Angels open the 2026 season in Houston. For the last couple of weeks the team has been stating Robert Stephenson would be ready to go against the Astros.
As Spring Training opens for 2026, all 30 teams have high hopes and big questions. These are the storylines to follow for each team heading into Opening Day.
As the baseball world gets ready to watch Team USA take on Team Venezuela for the championship of the 2026 World Baseball Classic it is only natural to wonder who might be on the rosters of the 2026 participants.
With Alek Manoah's poor Cactus League performances and there is now an open rotation spot up for grabs. The good news is that several pitchers have made strong arguments to make the team this week.
Heading into Tempe the Angels lacked MLB caliber depth in the rotation. The franchise hoped Alek Manoah could somehow regain his form and take the final spot in the rotation.
The Los Angeles Angels are currently participating in spring training as they gear up for the upcoming 2026 MLB season. The Angels are desperately hoping that this is the year they break their ugly 12-year playoff drought, having won just 72 games a season ago.

The 2026 MLB season is right around the corner, and it is never too early to start thinking about how it might unfold. Seemingly, every year, we have a decent handle on who should contend and who is likely to struggle, which makes looking ahead to the trade deadline inevitable.
Angels shortstop Zach Neto and the Cubs OF/DH Seiya Suzuki both left spring games early on Saturday. As their clubs await test results and any recovery that is necessary, we analyze what their injuries mean for your fantasy baseball team and your draft strategies.

One of the Los Angeles Angels' top draft picks in recent years is officially set to open the 2026 season in the minors. Christian Moore, the Angels' No.
Usually, when a team sends a top prospect to the minors for more development to begin a season, it is just another transaction. For the Los Angeles Angels, such a decision is a surprise.
Robert Stephenson is dealing with yet another injury concern, as Angels manager Kurt Suzuki told reporters (including Jeff Fletcher of the Orange County
Looking around Tempe there are more quality minor leaguers in camp than in previous years. While not a deep farm system, the Angels organization does have some near MLB ready talent in the fold.
No World Baseball Classic team had a better group stage than Team Italy. But no Major League franchise's prospects stood out as much as the Angels. Whether it was Lucas Ramirez hitting two home runs against Team USA or Sam Aldegheri shutting down Team Brazil, future Angels shone brightly.
