9/30/24 Angels GM Perry Minasian says young core gives him reason for optimism. As Perry Minasian described his feelings about the state of the Angels building toward 2025, he often had to interrupt himself with disclaimers, so as not to get too far from the reality that they did just suffer the most losses in franchise history. While the 63-99 record looks to many like a colossal failure, the Angels' general manager has no problem seeing through the rubble to the bright spots. “As far as the season goes, very frustrating from a small-picture standpoint,” Minasian said. Minasian, who last month received a two-year contract extension, said the development of everyday players like shortstop Zach Neto, catcher Logan O'Hoppe and first baseman Nolan Schanuel and pitchers like José Soriano and Ben Joyce have provided the Angels with a young core they didn't previously have.

9/23/24 Angels shortstop Zach Neto looks to take another step forward after encouraging season. The best offensive game of Zach Neto's career came just about a week after he was at one of his lowest points, when the frustration in the 23-year-old was so great that Manager Ron Washington could see it in his swings. “He went up there and almost broke his ankle twisting himself into the ground,” Washington said. Days later, Neto slugged two homers and a go-ahead three-run double, on his way to a six-RBI game on Sunday that emphatically ended his slump. It's all been part of the growing process of his first full major league season.

8/31/24 Zach Neto making impression as Angels host M's. The Los Angeles Angels will host the Seattle Mariners on Saturday night in Anaheim, Calif., ready to get a good look at many of their young prospects over the final month of the regular season. Shortstop Zach Neto, 23, already is recognized as an above-average defensive player, but his numbers at the plate this year have turned some heads. On Thursday against the Detroit Tigers, Neto hit his 20th home run of the season, becoming just the second Angels shortstop to hit 20 homers in a season, joining Jim Fregosi (22 in 1970), who is Angels' royalty.

8/30/24 Angels prospect Sam Aldegheri endures rough debut in loss to Mariners. Sam Aldegheri knows all about carving an improbable path from humble beginnings so his major league debut is not likely to get him too far off course. From a small town outside of Verona, it was not exactly a hospitable welcome for Aldegheri, who gave up five runs in the first inning. All of them were unearned when sure-handed shortstop Zach Neto failed to squeeze his glove on a line drive hit right to him by Jorge Polanco. Instead of what would have been the final out of a scoreless inning to begin Aldegheri's time in the major leagues, two runs scored on the Neto error.

8/29/24 Neto homers, rookie Kochanowicz pitches 6 shutout innings and Angels beat Tigers 3-0. Zach Neto homered, rookie Jack Kochanowicz pitched six shutout innings and the Los Angeles Angels ended a seven-game losing streak with a 3-0 win over the Detroit Tigers. Los Angeles had lost 12 of 14 and were 1-8 going into the last game of their road trip. Detroit had won six straight, but left 10 runners on base on Thursday. Kochanowicz was spectacular in his sixth major-league start, allowing five hits in six innings. He struck out four without walking a batter. Tigers starter Keider Montero allowed three runs on five hits and three walks in five innings.

8/19/24 One If By Land, Two If By Seager.

Quietly, Corey Seager (2-for-3, 4 RBIs, 27th and 28th homer) has stayed healthy all year. ‘Quietly’ because I think if you would’ve told anyone that he’d play in 95% of his team’s games he’d be a top 20 guy, easily. Before yesterday, he had thirty more at-bats than Zach Neto and exactly the same amount of value on the Player Rater. Please, blog, may I have some more?

7/21/24 Angels' aggressiveness with every prospect except top pitcher makes little sense. The Los Angeles Angels have a well-earned reputation for being extremely aggressive with their minor league prospects. The Angels brought up Zach Neto after just 48 games in the minors leagues and they also famously called up Nolan Schanuel in the same year he was drafted. Despite the fact that Dana has looked great in 2024 at Double-A and the team's obvious need for starting pitching in the big leagues, the Angels have taken a much more cautious approach with him than other prospects for whatever reason. As to why the Angels have chosen this path, that requires a bit more explanation and nuance.
