A plethora of trades the past few days led to the Angels announcing their 25-man roster mere hours before their first regular season game.
While the usual mainstays, like Mike Trout and Kole Calhoun, will occupy spots on the 25-man roster, there is quite a bit of turnover from last year’s Opening Day roster. Only nine players from the 2018 Opening Day roster stuck around to make it onto the 2019 roster: Trout, Calhoun, Andrelton Simmons, Albert Pujols, Zack Cozart, Tyler Skaggs, Noe Ramirez, Luke Bard and Cam Bedrosian.
