Angels To Try Tim Anderson In The Outfield
Los Angeles Angels manager Ron Washington said that the team is planning to try shortstop Tim Anderson in the outfield later in spring training. With Zach Neto (shoulder) a candidate to open the 2025 season on the injured after having right-shoulder surgery last November, Anderson could open the year as the Angels' primary shortstop, although he'll have competition from the likes of Luis Rengifo, Scott Kingery and Kyren Paris. The 31-year-old will increase his odds of making the Opening Day roster, though, if he impresses the coaches with his work in the outfield this spring. Anderson has never played the outfield in his MLB career and will be a long shot to see much time out there, if at all, in 2025. Offensively, the former first-rounder has fallen off a cliff the last two years after being an All-Star in both 2021 and 2022 with the Chicago White Sox. He's only worth a bench spot in AL-only leagues.
