Los Angeles Angels

-

Manager: Brad Ausmus (first season). 2018: 80-82, fourth place. First Workout: Feb. 13/18. He’s Here: RHP Cody Allen, C Jonathan Lucroy, RHP Matt Harvey, RHP Trevor Cahill, 1B Justin Bour, OF Peter Bourjos, INF Tommy La Stella, RHP Luis Garcia. He’s Outta Here: Manager Mike Scioscia, RHP Garrett Richards, RHP Matt Shoemaker, 1B Jefry Marte, RHP Jim Johnson, LHP Jose Alvarez, RHP Blake Parker, 3B Kaleb Cowart. Going Campin’: A new era begins in Orange County after Scioscia’s club-record 19 seasons in charge. Ausmus will bring a fresh perspectiv­e to a roster featuring largely the same players that completed the Angels’ third straight losing season last fall. For the first time in years, the Angels might get help from a farm system left in ruins by former GM Jerry Dipoto. Touted slugger Jo Adell and right-hander Griffin Canning look like surefire impact players, and they could arrive in Anaheim in 2019.
