The @Angels are bringing back Phil Nevin as their manager for the 2023 season.
Nevin is the team’s fourth manager in five seasons, during a period when team owner Arte Moreno has been exploring the sale of the team. latimes.com/sports/angels/…
Nevin, in his first major league managerial role, has led the team to a 73-88 record (not counting Wednesday's season finale) after taking over for Joe Maddon, who was fired on June 7 in the middle of a franchise-record 14-game losing streak. latimes.com/sports/angels/…
“Who are the draft picks who have made an impact in Anaheim? Nobody,” said Rick Ingalls, an @Angels SoCal-based amateur scout from 1981-2001.
Once an "immature kid" who "thought I had it all figured out," fiery Phil Nevin has matured since his playing days, when his volcanic temper often got the best of him. The #Angels felt he had the right temperament, a mix of intensity and calm, to manage. latimes.com/sports/angels/…
