Another Angels Exec Has Exited the Organization

The Halos are cleaning house

Change is coming for the Los Angeles Angels, and it's no secret. 

Just three weeks after the team let go of manager Phil Nevin, the Halos continue to clean house. According to Angels insider from The Atheltic, Sam Blum, the Halos minor league pitching coordinator Buddy Carlyle is no longer a part of the organization.

Carlyle spent his time as the pitching coordinator for the Double-A affiliate of the Los Angeles Angels, the Rocket City Trash Pandas. 

Before his time with the Halos, he pitched in the majors and overseas for 16 years. In his major league career, he had a record of 13-13 with an ERA of 5.14 and 232 strikeouts as a reliever. 

Carlyle's exit came at the right time as the Trash Pandas had an ERA of 5.27 in the 2023 season, with a 4.23 FIP, 3.58 xFIP, and contact percentage of 70%. Clearly, things didn't work out for him in the organization, leading to his release. 

We'll see who will replace Buddy, as it is crucial they find the right person to develop these young players who could play a significant role for the Halos down the road. 

Changes continue to come to the Halos organization this offseason. Don't expect Carlyle to be the last one.
