Zach Neto Expected To Miss Start Of The Season
41 seconds agoMLB.com's Rhett Bollinger writes that Los Angeles Angels shortstop Zach Neto (shoulder) is expected to miss the start of the 2025 regular season after undergoing right-shoulder surgery in early November of last year. As for who will replace Neto at the 6 early on, the Angels have options in Tim Anderson, Kevin Newman, Scott Kingery, Luis Rengifo and Kyren Paris. The Angels are optimistic that Neto won't miss much time early in the year, but we'll have a better idea on his timetable in spring training. The 24-year-old was impressive in his first full season in the big leagues in 2024, slashing .249/.318/.443 with a .761 OPS, 23 home runs, 77 RBI, 30 stolen bases and 70 runs scored in 155 games. Neto's shoulder injury clouds his fantasy value a bit entering the 2025 season, but he could still have a shot at another 20-20 season and ranks as RotoBaller's No. 25 fantasy shortstop.
