In a surprising and exciting development for Angels fans, the Los Angeles Angels are set to appoint franchise legend Tim Salmon as their new General Assistant Manager. The announcement is expected imminently, marking a major shift in the organization’s leadership strategy.
Salmon, affectionately known as “King Fish,” is one of the most beloved figures in Angels history. During his 14-year MLB career, all with the Angels, he became a cornerstone of the franchise, helping lead the team to its only World Series title in 2002. His legacy as a player includes a .282 career batting average, 299 home runs, and the 1993 American League Rookie of the Year award.
Now stepping into an executive role, Salmon brings with him not only a wealth of baseball knowledge but also a deep connection to the Angels’ culture and values. His appointment is seen as an effort to bridge the past and future, as the team looks to rebuild and regain competitiveness in the AL West.
Insiders say the decision was influenced by owner Arte Moreno’s desire to return to a culture of excellence built on leadership from within. A formal press conference is expected within 24 hours.
