Angels Fire Perry Minasian, Hire John Mozeliak as Interim GM
John Mozeliak will oversee baseball operations as the Angels seek a new general manager after another losing season.
- The Los Angeles Angels fired general manager Perry Minasian on Friday, appointing former St. Louis Cardinals executive John Mozeliak as a consultant to oversee day-to-day baseball operations and assist in the search for a new general manager.
- Since Minasian replaced Billy Eppler in 2020, the franchise has made no discernible progress under owner Arte Moreno. The team is barreling toward its 11th consecutive losing season.
- The Angels are tied for the worst record in the American League at 34-48, having lost a franchise-record 99 games in 2024. The team never won more than 77 games during Minasian's tenure.
- Managerial instability plagued the organization as Minasian clashed with Joe Maddon early in his tenure, leading to his firing. Minasian later hired first-time manager Kurt Suzuki last fall with the acknowledgment that their fates were tied.
- Team president Molly Jolly and Mozeliak are scheduled to speak at a news conference on Saturday. Whoever succeeds Minasian will become the Angels' fourth full-time general manager since 2012.
