Los Angeles Angels 2021: Scouting, Projected Lineup, Season Prediction

Mike Trout made his big-league debut as a 19-year-old on July 8, 2011. Since then, the Los Angeles Angels have gone 721–708 (a .505 winning percentage) during the regular season and 0–3 in their only playoff appearance with Trout. They've cycled through three managers in that time (Mike Scioscia, Brad Ausmus, and Joe Maddon) and three GMs (Jerry Dipoto, Billy Eppler, Perry Minasian). Min asian's charge is to build a contender around Trout as he nears his 30s.

Perry Minasian is the new Los Angeles Angels' general manager. He worked as a clubhouse attendant and an analytical scout before becoming the Blue Jays' pro scouting director. He was later reunited with Alex Anthopoulos in Atlanta. The scouts predict the Angels will be a championship team in 2021. They think they have a good starting line-up, but they need to improve on their current rotation. Their best player is Griffin Canning, who is 26.

The Angels will part ways with the Low-A Burlington Bees and rookie-league Orem Owlz. Tri-City Dust Devils will become their High- A affiliate with Inland Empire 66ers in the now Low A California League. Mike Trout is a Philadelphia Eagles fan. Shohei Ohtani wants to continue playing as a two-way player in 2021. Jo Adell had a disappointing season in 2020. He had an error and a batting average of .161. He was charged with a four-base error during a game at Globe Life Field in August.
