LA Angels in 2022
Despite the presence of star powers like Shohei Ohtani and Mike Trout, as a joint force since 2018, and Trout alone since 2011, the Angels haven’t even made it past the regular season rounds since 2015. Given their poor regular season run, the World Series are multiple unrealistic dreams away.
Similarly, even 2022 proved to be a continuation of their poor form. While Ohtani and Trout have hit multiple homers and Ohtani is actively fighting Aaron Judge in the MVP race, the Angels are struggling in the bottom half of the points table.
