Angels Hire Mozeliak as Interim GM | MLB News

The Angels just pulled off a seismic front office move, firing GM Perry Minasian after five seasons and bringing in John Mozeliak as interim GM for the 2026 season — all without owner Arte Moreno’s direct involvement. Mozeliak, known for Cardinals success, is open to staying beyond this year but won’t be the full-time GM until at least August, when the team will begin its search. With the Angels stuck in a decade-long losing streak and Moreno famously avoiding rebuilds, this shake-up has fans buzzing. Mozeliak’s immediate focus? Draft, trade deadline, and laying the groundwork for sustained wins — with Molly Jolly by his side to handle the business side. The coaching staff and manager Kurt Suzuki remain untouched, while Mozeliak already has a shortlist of GM candidates — including Randy Flores, a Cardinals assistant GM with Southern California ties.
