The Los Angeles Angels completely cleaned house of their coaching staff from 2024-2025, and are attempting a major turnaround moving forward. On the player-side, they have an incredibly exciting young nucleus of Zach Neto, Grayson Rodriguez, José Soriano, Nolan Schanuel, Jo Adell, Reid Detmers and Logan O'Hoppe. On the veteran side there's Mike Trout, Yusei Kikuchi and Travis d'Arnaud. These players all have serious potential, and hopefully this new coaching staff will get the most out of them.
The Angels hired Kurt Suzuki to a one-year deal with club options, so some figured that building out a cohesive, intelligent and capable coaching staff might be a problem.
