  • Angels' Luis Rengifo: No limitations in spring training

    Rengifo (wrist) said Tuesday that he began his normal offseason training in late December and is entering spring training without limitations, Jack Janes of TheSportingTribune.com reports.

    Rengifo underwent right wrist surgery last August but appears to be 100 percent recovered at the beginning of camp. The switch hitter should be an everyday player for the Angels in 2025, although it might not necessarily be at one position. Rengifo saw most of his action in 2024 at second and third base, but he's also capable of handling shortstop and all three outfield spots.

  • Angels' Kelvin Caceres: Remains in organization

    The Angels outrighted Caceres (lat) to Triple-A Salt Lake on Monday.

    Caceres had been removed from the 40-man roster in order to clear a spot for waiver claim Michael Petersen. The 25-year-old Caceres missed all of last season while recovering from lat surgery and it's not clear when he might be ready to pitch in games.

  • Angels' Tim Anderson: Will get some reps in outfield

    Angels manager Ron Washington said Monday that Anderson will see some action in the outfield later this spring, Chelsea Janes of The Washington Post reports.

    Anderson's main focus will be competing for time at shortstop, where the Angels will likely need a fill-in for the injured Zach Neto (shoulder) for a bit. However, it appears the 31-year-old will also attempt to add to his versatility with some reps in the outfield. Anderson started two games at second base for the White Sox in 2023, which is the only time he's ever played a position other than shortstop.

  • Angels' Zach Neto: Begins throwing progression

    Angels manager Ron Washington said that Neto (shoulder) began his throwing progression Monday, Sam Blum of The Athletic reports.

    Washington added that Neto is not yet throwing with full effort, but the process of the shortstop ramping things up following last November's right shoulder surgery has begun. The expectation is that Neto will likely need a stint on the injured list to begin the season, but a clearer picture on his timetable should be available in the coming weeks.

  • Angels' Mickey Moniak: Will get look in center field

    Moniak will be in the mix for starts in center field following the Angels' decision to shift Mike Trout (knee) to right field, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

    With Trout injured, Moniak led the Angels with 91 starts in center field last season. Jo Adell -- who started four contests in center field in 2024 -- will be Moniak's chief competition for playing time. While Moniak would likely offer the Angels a steadier glove in center field, the Halos might lean toward Adell if they feel he still has some untapped offensive potential.

  • Angels' Jo Adell: Ticketed for center field

    Adell is in line to play more in center field with the Angels' decision to move Mike Trout (knee) to right field, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

    Adell was a Gold Glove finalist in right field in 2024 but will be tasked with a new position in 2025, at least while Trout is healthy. The 25-year-old Adell has started only 15 games in center field at the major-league level but played there extensively in the minors. Mickey Moniak will also be in the mix for starts in center field and has more experience at the position than Adell.

  • Angels' Mike Trout: Moving to right field

    Trout (knee) will move to right field this season in an effort to preserve his health, Alden Gonzalez of ESPN.com reports.

    The decision was made during a meeting Trout had with Angels coaches Sunday. Trout has some limited experience playing the outfield corners, but he has been a center fielder exclusively since 2014. The 33-year-old has averaged just 66.5 games played per season over the last few years and played only 29 contests in 2024 due to knee problems. With Trout shifting over to right field, Jo Adell and Mickey Moniak will be in the mix to handle center field for the Angels.

  • Angels' Jorge Soler: Expected to bat near top of lineup

    Angels manager Ron Washington said Friday that he expects Soler, Mike Trout and Taylor Ward to be the top three batters in the lineup, though not necessarily in that order, Sam Blum of The Athletic reports.

    Soler is no stranger to the top of the lineup, as he was primarily slotted in the first third of the order -- including 41 times he batted leadoff -- during his stints with San Francisco and Atlanta last season. Though he batted just .241 overall, the veteran slugger reached base at a .338 clip with the help of a career-best 12.1 percent walk rate. It's not yet clear the exact spot Soler will occupy in the Angels' lineup, and Washington added that it's possible one of the three players he mentioned could instead hit cleanup, but Soler could benefit in terms of run-scoring or run-producing opportunities with a place near Trout if the latter can remain healthy.

  • Angels' Mike Trout: Working on plan to stay healthy

    Trout (knee) will meet with Angels manager Ron Washington and GM Perry Minasian to discuss ways to maintain the star outfielder's health, including by having him log more time in the corner outfield and at DH, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

    Trout has had trouble staying healthy in recent campaigns, as he's played in over 82 games just once since 2019. Last year, he tore the meniscus in his left knee in late April, and then suffered the same injury while attempting to rehab in the minors. The knee issues limited Trout to 29 games last year, though he was productive before getting hurt, slamming 10 home runs and stealing six bases. Trout's work on defense has been limited exclusively to center field since 2014, but he played some in both left field and right field earlier in his career, and it appears he'll log time in those corner outfield spots -- as well as at DH -- during the coming campaign as the Angels look to keep arguably their most important hitter healthy.

  • Angels' Robert Stephenson: Placed on 60-day IL

    The Angels placed Stephenson (elbow) on the 60-day injured list Saturday, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

    Stephenson is still working his way back from the Tommy John procedure he underwent in May and isn't expected to make his return until July. Therefore, the Angels will temporarily strip him of his 40-man roster spot and give it to Kenley Jansen (shoulder), who officially signed his one-year deal with Los Angeles on Saturday.

  • Angels' Anthony Rendon: Moves to 60-day IL

    The Angels placed Rendon (hip) on the 60-day injured list Saturday, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

    Rendon is slated to undergo surgery on his hip after suffering a setback in his rehab sometime within the past several weeks. A recovery timeline should come following the procedure, but moving to the injured list will ensure he sits out until at least late May. The 34-year-old is certainly no stranger to extended absences, as he has yet to play more than 58 games in a season since signing with the Angels in 2020. His 40-man roster spot will be given to Yoan Moncada, whose signing was made official Saturday.

  • Angels' Zach Neto: Slated to bat fifth or sixth

    Angels manager Ron Washington said Friday that he expects Neto (shoulder) to bat fifth or sixth this season once he's healthy, Sam Blum of The Athletic reports.

    Neto batted second for the Angels for most of the final two months of last season, but with Mike Trout (knee) expected back and Jorge Soler added to the mix, Neto will slide down a bit in the batting order. A stint on the injured list at the beginning of the season is likely as he continues his recovery from right shoulder surgery.

  • Angels' Taylor Ward: Will be among top three in lineup

    Angels manager Ron Washington said Friday that he envisions Ward, Mike Trout (knee) and Jorge Soler being his first three hitters in the lineup in some order, Sam Blum of The Athleticreports.

    Ward was the team's leadoff hitter for most of the final two months of last season, so he would seem likely to occupy that spot again, although Soler also batted leadoff some last year with the Giants and Atlanta. Washington did add a caveat that one of Ward, Trout or Soler could bat cleanup, so he hasn't written anything down in ink yet. Zach Neto (shoulder) is expected to begin the season on the injured list but will bat fifth or sixth upon his return, per Washington.

  • Angels' Shaun Anderson: MiLB deal with Halos

    The Angels signed Anderson to a minor-league contract Wednesday.

    Anderson, 30, made two starts and four relief appearances between the Rangers and Marlins last season, posting an 8.27 ERA and 10:1 K:BB over 16.1 innings. He will likely begin the 2025 season at Triple-A Salt Lake, where he will provide some experienced rotation depth.

  • Angels' Anthony Rendon: Slated to undergo hip surgery

    Rendon is scheduled to undergo hip surgery and is facing a lengthy absence, Sam Blum of The Athletic reports.

    Rendon experienced a setback in his rehab sometime in the last few weeks and it was decided surgery was the best course of action. Further clarity on a timetable should be available after the operation, but it's fair to wonder whether Rendon has played his final game for the Angels. He has not played in any more than 58 games during his five seasons with the Halos and still has two years remaining on his seven-year, $245 million contract.

  • Angels' Zach Neto: Ahead of schedule

    Neto said he received "good news" on his surgically repaired right shoulder Tuesday and is ahead of schedule in his recovery, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

    Details of Neto's shoulder operation remain scarce, and the shortstop did not further elaborate on the "good news" he received, nor did he know whether he would be ready for Opening Day. Neto has been hitting off a tee but has not yet been cleared to throw. The prevailing expectation is that the 24-year-old will begin the season on the injured list, but further clarity on his situation should arise as spring training rolls along.

  • Angels' Robert Stephenson: Cleared for mound work

    Stephenson (elbow) is scheduled to throw off a mound Wednesday, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

    The bullpen session will be Stephenson's first since he had a brace inserted into his right elbow as part of the Tommy John surgery he underwent May 1, 2024. Stephenson has reported no complications thus far in his recovery from surgery and is hopeful to return from the injured list by early July or shortly after the All-Star break. The 31-year-old signed a three-year, $33 million contract with the Angels last offseason and looked to be a leading candidate to close games in 2024 before suffering the elbow injury, but he'll likely have to settle for a setup or middle-relief role once he's finally cleared for his 2025 debut.

  • Angels' Ben Joyce: No longer expected to close

    Joyce is unlikely to be the Angels' primary closer with the team's signing of Kenley Jansen (shoulder) on Monday, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    The Angels and Jansen agreed on a one-year, $10 million contract Monday, which DiGiovanna notes will likely give Joyce "another year to grow into [the] closer role." It wouldn't make much sense for Los Angeles to have signed Jansen for any other reason than to serve as the team's primary closer, as he currently sits first among active players -- and fourth all-time -- with 447 regular-season saves. While Jansen may be nearing the end of his storied career, he showed he still has gas left in the tank with his performance for Boston last year, which included a 3.29 ERA, 1.06 WHIP, 28.4 percent strikeout rate and 27 saves. It's still likely that Joyce will get an occasional save opportunity, per Sam Blum of The Athletic, but at least for one season it appears he will be an understudy to Jansen, which cuts down Joyce's fantasy appeal in most formats considerably.
