Angels News

The Los Angeles Angels are in a state of flux as they continue to search for bright spots amidst a disappointing season. Ryan Johnson's impressive turnaround, highlighted by a dominant start recently, offers a glimmer of hope for a rotation that desperately needs stability. Meanwhile, the ongoing uncertainty surrounding Stan Kroenke's ownership plans adds another layer of intrigue to the team's future. Grayson Rodriguez's elite extension could be a key factor if he can refine his approach, while fans eagerly await Shohei Ohtani's return, as he took his first swings off a tee since going on the IL. With a lukewarm 3-4 stretch in their last seven games, the Angels must find a way to finish strong, especially against the Mariners, who stand at 70-81.
