Angels Bring Former All-Star Catcher Travis d’Arnaud to Los Angeles with Multiyear Deal

 

 

Angels Sign Travis d’Arnaud: Former All-Star Catcher Joins LA on Multi-Year Deal


Travis d’Arnaud didn’t stay a free agent for long.

 

The former All-Star catcher for the Atlanta Braves recently signed a two-year contract worth $12 million with the Los Angeles Angels after the Braves opted not to pick up his $8 million option for 2025.

Approaching his 36th birthday in February, d’Arnaud played a vital role on Braves teams that clinched four National League East championships and made five playoff appearances between 2020 and 2024. During this period, he hit 60 home runs and maintained a .749 OPS.

He notably contributed to Atlanta’s 2021 World Series championship, hitting two home runs and recording three two-hit games during their six-game victory over Houston in the Fall Classic.

After the Braves acquired Sean Murphy from Oakland before the start of the 2022 season, d’Arnaud found himself sharing playing time. However, he managed to start most games last season due to Murphy suffering an oblique injury. In Anaheim, d’Arnaud might find himself in a similar role, as he joins second-year player Logan O’Hoppe, who had a strong season with 20 home runs and a 2.7 WAR last year.

Living in Lakewood, which is situated equidistant from Angel and Dodger stadiums, d’Arnaud might also take on a recruiting role for the Angels, who are often in need of pitching talent. His former neighbor in Atlanta, Max Fried, is a free agent, as is his high school teammate Jack Flaherty.
