The outputs have been exciting to see, but the inputs are a little concerning. Compare Ozzie Albies' 2023 with his 2026 so far. In 2023, his xwOBA 17 points than his wOBA (49th-luckiest player in baseball) In 2026, so far, his xwOBA is 67 points lower than his wOBA (17th-luckiest hitter in baseball)

We are deeply saddened to announce the passing of Angels Hall of Famer Garret Anderson. Garret will forever hold a special place in the hearts of Angels fans for his professionalism, class, and loyalty throughout his career and beyond. We extend our heartfelt condolences to the entire Anderson family.

In 2025, he saw time at third base, shortstop, second base, left field, center field and right field


The #Braves today selected RHP Ian Hamilton to the major league roster and designated RHP Osvaldo Bido for assignment. The club also optioned LHP Hayden Harris to Triple-A Gwinnett following last night’s game. Additionally, RHP Spencer Strider tonight begins a rehabilitation assignment with High-A Rome.
