The Los Angeles Angels concluded their 2026 season with a 62-100 record, marking the first 100-loss season in the franchise's history. Following this performance, the club declined manager Kurt Suzuki's contract option for the 2027 season. While Suzuki was offered a role as a special assistant, the team has begun searching for a new manager and coaching staff.

The organization is also undergoing a change in ownership. Longtime owner Arte Moreno has reportedly agreed to sell the club to a group led by Stan Kroenke, through Kroenke Sports & Entertainment. This transition is expected to finalize in 2027 and is already influencing organizational decisions and leadership changes within the front office.
