The Los Angeles Angels have signed right-handed pitcher Sandy Gaston to a minor league contract, adding a promising arm to their system. Once a highly-rated prospect with the Tampa Bay Rays, Gaston shone in his final six games at High-A, allowing only one run in twelve innings. Despite struggling in his brief Triple-A stint, the Angels, who finished last in 2025, see potential in Gaston to bolster their bullpen and potentially make his big league debut by the end of 2026.

The Los Angeles Angels bolstered their starting rotation by trading for pitcher Grayson Rodriguez, addressing a key area of focus this offseason. With the rotation now strengthened, the team is turning its attention to improving bullpen depth. Speculation is rife about potential free agent signings, with Kenley Jansen, who had a strong season with the Angels in 2025, being a prominent name. Jansens return to Anaheim seems possible, given his desire to remain with the team and his impressive performance last year. A potential one-year contract, valued around thirteen point seven million dollars, is being considered. Bringing Jansen back would not only fill a crucial need for a closer but also add a future Hall of Famers presence to the clubhouse, potentially significantly impacting the Angels performance in the upcoming season.
