‘Forget about the baseball stuff, just get healthy': Angels manager Ron Washington to miss season, unspecified issue
Washington will sit out the rest of the season due to health reasons. - Terrance Williams/AP Los Angeles Angels manager Ron Washington will sit the rest of the season out due to an unspecified medical issue, the team has announced. 'He's in good spirits,' Angels general manager Perry Minasian said in a press conference Friday – the same day the Angels suffered a 15-9 loss to the Washington Nationals. Advertisement 'He understands what needs to be done. I'm not going to go into details. That's for him to tell, if he decides to. But for me, I'm excited for him to do what he needs to do,' Minasian said. 'Forget about the baseball stuff, just get healthy because he's a great human being.' 'He's somebody that you want around,' Minasian added. The announcement comes after Washington, 73, stepped away from his managerial duties on June 20 over health concerns. Ray Montgomery, who has been with the Angels since 2021, will take over as interim manager, and Ryan Goins will step up as bench coach. 'It's obviously tough news and the focus is on Wash and making sure he gets what he needs right now,' Montgomery said, per 'Honestly, it's like a transactional piece. I'm looking at it as we have a game to play today. A week ago, when this started, we had the same mindset, and nothing's really changed. And again, relative to what I was doing prior, it's a lot of the same stuff.' Advertisement Washington was hired as Angels manager prior to the 2024 season and, before that, coached for seven seasons with the Atlanta Braves. He led the Texas Rangers to two World Series appearances, managing the team from 2007-14. For more CNN news and newsletters create an account at

Angels manager Ron Washington (health) out for rest of season
June 27 - Ron Washington will not manage the Los Angeles Angels for the rest of the season due to a health concern, the team announced Friday. Bench coach Ray Montgomery will act as interim manager. Ryan Goins was promoted to the team's bench coach. Washington, 73, experienced shortness of breath and heavy fatigue while the Angels were playing a four-game road series against the New York Yankees last week. He returned to Los Angeles and underwent tests on June 20 but the team didn't elaborate on the details or results. Washington reportedly discussed his situation with players and coaches prior to leaving New York but has not spoken to reporters. He has not been in the dugout but has been around the team, according to general manager Perry Minasian, who said last Friday his main concern is for Washington's health. "We all know how important this is for all of us, but health is more important than anything, and me personally, I'm not letting him back in the dugout until I know he's 100 percent OK. I love the guy too much," Minasian said. Washington is in his second season with the Angels and has a 103-139 record with the team. Los Angeles is 40-40 this season. Overall, Washington holds a 767-750 record in 10 seasons. He guided Texas (2007-14) to the World Series in 2010 and 2011 with the Rangers losing each time. Montgomery, 55, is in his fourth season on the Angels' coaching staff. Goins, 37, has been an infield coach for the Angels since last spring, following an eight-year playing career with the Toronto Blue Jays, Kansas City Royals and Chicago White Sox. --Field Level Media
