The Los Angeles Angels had an incredibly up-and-down 2025 season. They had amazing stretches of play (highlighted by their two sweeps against the Los Angeles Dodgers), but overall fell incredibly short of their expectations.

Kyle Hendricks came to the Angels with an incredible career already under his belt. He was a key part of the Chicago Cubs run to their historic 2016 World Series championship over Cleveland.
