Angels’ Ken Rosenthal reveals 1st move new owner Stan Kroenke must immediately make

The Los Angeles Angels have a new owner, Stan Kroenke, following the departure of previous owner Arte Moreno. Kroenke acquired the team for $4 billion, suggesting a brighter future ahead. MLB insider Ken Rosenthal believes this is the first crucial step for the Angels' rebuild after a disappointing 62-win season in 2026. According to Rosenthal, Kroenke's first move should be to contact the Milwaukee Brewers and Tampa Bay Rays.

He suggests interviewing their Presidents of Baseball Operations, Matt Arnold and Erik Neander, respectively. While these executives are currently under contract and may not be inclined to leave their current teams, Rosenthal argues that this move would send a strong message to the industry. By luring away top executives from successful franchises like the Brewers and Rays, the Angels would demonstrate their commitment to assembling a competitive team.

Rosenthal acknowledges that this suggestion may be ambitious, as the Brewers and Rays have proven to be successful in recent years and may be reluctant to part ways with key personnel. However, he believes that the Angels' move could signal their intent to join other KSE-owned franchises as champions.
