An MLB franchise does not languish in irrelevance for a decade without having a slew of organizational problems, but the biggest issue that has faced the Los Angeles Angels in their lengthy run of incompetence is an inability to build a formidable starting pitching rotation.

While it was a down year for the Los Angeles Angels, shortstop Zach Neto developed into one of the more pivotal hitters in the team’s lineup.

The Los Angeles Angels had the worst season in franchise history in 2024. After losing Shohei Ohtani to the Dodgers, they got only 29 games out of Mike Trout.

The Los Angeles Angels have traded for Jorge Soler from the Atlanta Braves, per Fansided’s Robert Murray.
