The Los Angeles Angels announced Monday that they will not be exercising Phil Nevin's option for the 2024 season, effectively ending his tenure as the Angels' manager. After an unsuccessful season at the helm on a 1-year deal, it seemed inevitable that Nevin would not return, but it was made official. So, what are our initial reactions to the news? We'll break down Phil's time as manager, what we liked, what we didn't, and discuss if he should be blamed for how the season transpired in segment 1!
Then, what candidates could potentially replace Phil Nevin as the Halos' manager in 2024? With names of experienced managers like Buck Showalter, Gabe Kapler, and Joe Girardi to secondary coaches around the league like Walt Weiss and Ron Washington, Perry Minasian will have the chance to select a manager he gets to choose, which is a good step for the organization. We'll discuss potential candidates and whether an experienced manager or a homegrown talent would be the best course of action in segment 2!
Plus, how does this news affect Shohei Ohtani potentially returning to the Angels? It will be the 5th Angels' manager in 7 years and Ohtani's 5th as well, and is it better that Perry is staying in the long run for the Angels to make a play for Shohei Ohtani? We'll discuss in segment 3!
