Former Dodger leaves new team before Opening Day
"Chris Taylor played just 30 games for the Angels in 2025, struggling with injury throughout the season. He fractured his hand after a pitch hit him against the Athletics, landing on the injured list in June 2025."
"Before the Angels signed him, Taylor said he had plans to remain in MLB for the coming season. 'Oh no, I'm still playing,' Taylor said. 'I'm down here in Arizona working out.'"
"Taylor had a .761 OPS throughout his 1,007 appearances with the Dodgers, and is still a fan favorite among fans. His best season with the Dodgers came in 2017, where he hit 21 homers and tallied 73 RBIs."
Chris Taylor opted out of his contract with the Los Angeles Angels just before Opening Day after being told he would not make the major league roster. He had previously signed a minor league deal and played 30 games for the Angels in 2025, struggling with injuries. Taylor had a .179 batting average with two home runs and ten RBIs. He spent ten years with the Dodgers, winning two World Series and making one All-Star appearance, before being released.
