2023 Los Angeles Angels season Major League Baseball season
Major League Baseball team season
The 2023 Los Angeles Angels season was the 63rd season of the Los Angeles Angels franchise in the American League , the 58th in Anaheim , and their 58th season playing their home games at Angel Stadium . Chasing history to try and reach their first playoff appearance since 2014, the Angels started 40–32, but subsequently collapsed and, on September 16, the Angels were eliminated from postseason contention, for the ninth straight year. They repeat their record from the previous year, which was 73–89. They set a mark with their eighth consecutive losing season, eclipsing the mark previously set by the 1971–1977 teams. The Angels drew an average home attendance of 32,599 in 81 home games in the 2023 MLB season, the 13th highest in the league.[ 1]
Offseason
The Angels finished the 2022 season 73–89, 33 games out of first place.[ 2] They missed the playoffs for the eighth consecutive season and now share the longest current playoff drought with the Tigers. Both teams have not made the playoffs since 2014.
Rule changes
Pursuant to the CBA, new rule changes will be in place for the 2023 season:[ 3]
institution of a pitch clock between pitches;
limits on pickoff attempts per plate appearance;
limits on defensive shifts requiring two infielders to be on either side of second and be within the boundary of the infield; and
larger bases (increased to 18-inch squares);
Opening Day lineup
The team opened the season with a 2–1 loss to the Oakland Athletics at Oakland Coliseum on March 30.[ 4]

June
On June 15, Gio Urshela sustained an injury, later revealed to be a fractured pelvis and will be out for a significant amount of time. [ 7] With both 3rd basemen options (Gio Urshela, Anthony Rendon ) out with injuries, on June 23, the Angels traded minor league players Coleman Crow, and Landon Marceaux to the New York Mets for Eduardo Escobar . [ 8]
On Saturday, June 24, the Angels recorded new team records for both runs and hits in a 25-1 blowout over the Colorado Rockies .[ 9] [ 10] Despite outscoring the Rockies 32-12 in the series, the Angels lost the series, making the second worst run differential of a team who won a baseball series.[ 11] Additionally, on June 25, the day after the 25-1 blowout, the Angels acquired Mike Moustakas for minor league player Connor Van Scoyoc. [ 12]
July
On July 26, the Angels traded minor leaguers Ky Bush and Edgar Quero to the Chicago White Sox for Lucas Giolito and Reynaldo Lopez .[ 13] When asked about the trade, General Manager Perry Minasian said: "For this team to be in this position with the injuries we’ve had, I felt like I owed it to the group to give them a better chance to win."[ 14] A day after the trade, the Angels faced off against the Detroit Tigers in a doubleheader. The Angels won both games as Shohei Ohtani pitched a one hit complete game shut up in Game 1 and homered twice in Game 2.[ 15]
During the second game of a three game series with the Toronto Blue Jays on July 29, Taylor Ward was struck in the head by a 91mph fastball by Alek Manoah . As the result, Taylor Ward suffered facial fractures and is put on the injury list. [ 16] The following day, on July 30, the Angels traded minor leaguers Jake Madden, and Mason Albright to the Colorado Rockies for Randal Grichuk , and C.J. Cron .[ 17]
