One way or another, this team is going to have to make a decision about what they want to be. They could take advantage of the market and sell (Taylor Ward could fetch them a nice haul) , or they could strike a few deals and go for it.

6/22/25	3 potential Taylor Ward trade returns. With the trade deadline approaching and the Angels continuing to fail to reach .500, the odds of a Taylor Ward trade are becoming more and more real in Anaheim. Despite being a fan favorite and one of the highlights of these abysmal seasons for the Halos, Ward's power bat will be a hot commodity come the trade deadline. Perry Minasian will have little choice but to trade Ward unless the Angels can make a genuine run at the American League Wild Card race. Source: https://halohangout.com/3-potential-taylor-ward-tr...
6/20/25	3 Angels players who are tanking their trade value ahead of crucial deadline. The Los Angeles Angels are two games below .500, in a crowded American League wild card race and the halfway point of the season is rapidly approaching. While virtually every reputable publication has chocked the Angels up as sellers at the trade deadline, the team itself might view themselves as buyers if they continue to stay around the same win% in the next month. No team in baseball with any chance of making the postseason is more desperate to win then the Angels, so they might look past what is reasonable and look to what is possible when it comes to buying or selling. The biggest decision the Angels will have to make in the next month+ surrounds whether to trade or hold onto Taylor Ward, who just clubbed his team-leading 19th home run of the season against the Yankees.

6/15/25	Angels' Ron Washington Should Win Manager of the Year Award, Says MLB Analyst. The Los Angeles Angels are only a few games back from a wild card spot despite the team's 33-37 record, which an MLB insider believes warrants the manager getting the Manager of the Year award. It is quite the feat for a team filled with inconsistent players to remain in the playoff hunt, especially considering the twists and turns that Angels fans endured. Players like Taylor Ward and Logan O'Hoppe went through extended cold stretches, while the pitching staff has struggled, but through Washington's leadership, the Angels are rounding into a more consistent team.
