Angels Claim Ryan Noda Off Waivers From Athletics
Briefly

Ryan Noda, claimed by the Angels off waivers from the Athletics, is a player who embodies the three-true-outcomes skill set, excelling in walks and showing considerable power.
Although Ryan Noda showcased on-base skills with a walk rate around 12-15%, his strikeout rate was high and production dipped significantly in the 2024 season.
The Angels view Noda as a depth option behind Nolan Schanuel at first base, contrasting their styles, as Noda has power but struggles to make consistent contact.
Noda's minor league options remain, providing the Angels flexibility as he continues to develop without needing a spot on the Opening Day roster.
