Pitching coach Mike Maddux, bullpen coach Dom Chiti and ****** istant pitching coach Darryl Scott were all fired with the team 24th in MLB in earned-run average (4.51), 30th in walks (508) and 25th in WHIP (1.38).

"After spending time discussing with Kurt where we are as a coaching staff and where we want to go in the future, we felt it was best to make a change," interim Angels general manager John Mozeliak said in a press release. "With seven weeks remaining, we plan to use this time to evaluate what additional steps are needed to elevate our entire pitching program and best position us for success moving forward."
It's the second time Mozeliak has had Maddux as his pitching coach. The first stint ended after the 2022 season, when Maddux voluntarily left the St. Louis Cardinals, during Mozeliak's time as the Cardinals' head of baseball operations.
