Overview:

The Los Angeles Angels head into a season. The American League West is unpredictable. It’s unclear which team will take hold of the division this year. The Houston Astros have taken some hits with the losses of Alex Bregman and Kyle Tucker. The health of the Texas Rangers pitching staff seems questionable. The health of the Seattle Mariners pitching staff also seems uncertain heading into the season. The roster moves made today, March 9th, 2025, may not impact the regular season. However, they give Brett Kerry a chance to demonstrate his capabilities to the big league manager. Kerry’s development and Brett Kerry’s skills will be closely watched.
