It is nearly six weeks since the LA Angels opened their 2019 Sprining Training Camp.  There have been many position position battles that have been ongoing, but the dust is starting to clear and the 25-man Opening Day Roster is now finalized.

The LA Angels are starting a new era in tomorrow when they travel to Oakland for a four-game series against the A’s.  The Mike Scioscia Era is now behind us and now it is the Brad Ausmus Era.  How will the Angels fare is anybody’s guess.  If the team can stay healthy and produce at the level that is expected of them the 2019 Angels may make a return to the playoffs for the first time since 2014.

However, if multiple players underperform or there is a plethora of injuries the team will struggle to finish above .500.  No matter what it should be a fun ride and hopefully this will be the year the team will finally put it altogether.

So here is a look at the most likely Opening Day Roster as it stands right now.
