Zach Neto's Surgery Affects Angels' 2025 Season Start
Los Angeles Angels shortstop Zach Neto is expected to miss the start of the 2025 season following shoulder surgery, which he underwent after an unsuccessful rehabilitation attempt for an injury sustained during a game against the White Sox in late September. Angels General Manager Perry Minasian confirmed the surgery but did not provide a specific timeframe for Neto's return, acknowledging the uncertain duration of his recovery. Neto, a standout player for the Angels with a .249 average, 23 home runs, and 30 stolen bases, had been a key figure in the Angels' lineup and his absence could impact their aggressive offseason plans aimed at ending an 11-year postseason drought. The team plans to bolster its infield depth, having already acquired Scott Kingery and Ryan Noda, with internal options like Luis Rengifo also available to cover shortstop duties. Minasian expressed optimism about addressing their infield needs, noting the importance of depth and potential contributions from the minor league system. Despite Neto's absence, the Angels remain committed to improving their roster after a disappointing 63-99 season.
