The Los Angeles Angels are expected to entertain trade offers for shortstop Zach Neto during the upcoming offseason. Multiple teams, including the Boston Red Sox, Philadelphia Phillies, Milwaukee Brewers, and Tampa Bay Rays, have been identified as potential suitors. The Angels held onto Neto at the trade deadline because no team met their high asking price for the shortstop. Neto remains under team control through 2030 and has produced 81 home runs and 238 RBI over four major-league seasons. With the Los Angeles club set to miss the postseason for the 12th consecutive year, the front office faces a decision regarding a potential contract extension or a trade. If an extension is not reached, trading Neto could be a primary strategy for the franchise this winter.
