Top Angels players to watch
Veteran center fielder Mike Trout remains the primary focus of the Angels’ offense. While his established bat anchors the lineup, the front office has surrounded him with a rising homegrown core. Shortstop Zach Neto and catcher Logan O’Hoppe have firmly cemented themselves as critical, everyday pieces of the batting order.
On the mound, right-hander José Soriano has become one of the biggest pitching storylines of the last year. Utilizing a devastating high-velocity sinker and an improved curveball, he’s put together a dominant 2026 campaign so far.
