Kurt Suzuki is stepping into a precarious situation in Anaheim, as the roster is pretty suboptimal, every single member of the front office and coaching staff (whoever they may be) is on the hot seat and the ownership plagues the organization day-in, day-out.
The Angels' new manager should not expect wholesale changes on the roster, the team will likely bring back a player or two and make marginal signings in free agency (like they did last season). Part of the reason Arte Moreno signed off on bringing on Suzuki was the looming lockout after the 2026 season, so he did not want to spend a lot of money on a manager.
