Ron Washington Hopes to Manage in 2026
Los Angeles Angels manager Ron Washington opened up about his health problems on Monday, revealing to the media that he underwent quadruple bypass surgery on June 30. Washington has been on medical leave since June 20 and will not return to the dugout in 2025. At 73, Washington is the game's oldest manager, but he made it clear that he wants to come back as the Angels' skipper for a third season in 2026. "Without a doubt," said Washington, who added that his fate is in general manager Perry Minasian's hands. Minasian will have to decide whether to pick up Washington's option for next season. In the meantime, the Angels will finish this season under bench coach and interim manager Ray Montgomery. At 62-69, the club is on pace to miss the playoffs for the 11th year in a row.Read More News
