Unfortunately, just like last year, the 2025 Athletics campaign is about developing young talent rather than competing for a playoff berth. The front office was active during the offseason, signing starting pitcher Luis Severino to a franchise-record three-year, $67 million contract and extending Brent Rooker and Lawrence Butler to long-term deals, but the team is […]

Taylor Ward is locked in, and the Los Angeles Angels are riding his hot bat all the way up the standings. Ward tied a career high with five RBIs on Thursday, blasting a go-ahead grand slam in the seventh inning to power the Angels past the Oakland Athletics with a 10–5 win. It was Ward’s […]
