SHOCKER: Stan Kroenke Seizes Control of Los Angeles Angels in $4 Billion MLB SHAKE-UP? | Back to the Bullpen

Los Angeles Angels hit the reset button as Stan Kroenke secures ownership in a $4 billion deal, making him the richest owner in MLB. Artie Moreno steps back from control after years of inconsistency and eleven straight losing seasons, despite fielding generational talents like Mike Trout and Shohei Ohtani. Is this the start of a new era in Anaheim—and could a new stadium and front office overhaul finally turn the franchise into a powerhouse? Hosts Mike Stanton and Brett Chancey break down the impact of Kroenke’s sports empire experience, discuss the fallout from the Ohtani era, and spotlight how changes off the field could reshape the Angels’ future. The episode also covers Alex Bregman’s red-hot August with the Chicago Cubs, Boston Red Sox’s injury woes, and a highlight-reel catch by Baltimore’s Colton Cowser.
