News Summary:

On September 4, 2026, Arte Moreno is set to sell his majority stake in the Los Angeles Angels to Los Angeles Rams owner Stan Kroenke, a move that will likely fuel speculation about the team’s future in Anaheim. This development provides context for the Minnesota Twins' ownership situation; the Pohlad family reversed course on selling the team last summer when they could not achieve their desired value, leading to Tom Pohlad taking control in December 2025 amid fan outrage and apathy. Previously, on September 3, 2026, the Chicago White Sox sent left-hander Tyler Gilbert outright to Triple-A Charlotte after he went unclaimed on waivers, having been designated for assignment earlier in the week to make space for Tommy Pham on the 40-man roster. Also on September 3, the White Sox announced a partnership with CIBC and local nonprofits to host Childhood Cancer Awareness Day on September 6, 2026, at Guaranteed Rate Field. An article published on September 3 also discussed fan reactions to the San Diego Padres' November 2025 hiring of Steven Souza Jr. as their hitting coach, a decision that initially drew skepticism due to his lack of major league coaching experience.

White Sox pushing back Luis Castillo for mechanical work as rotation stays in flux

Veteran right-hander Luis Castillo threw a bullpen on Wednesday afternoon. Given his 7.25 ERA in a White Sox uniform and general manager Chris Getz’s recent comments on his delivery, it was a crucial one. “There were some lower half mechanics that they were working on, and that seemed to be in a much better place,” Getz said of Castillo’s last start.

Twins’ Dean Kremer trade with Orioles already looks like a steal despite a few bad starts

When the Minnesota Twins acquired right-handed starting pitcher Dean Kremer from the Baltimore Orioles, it seemed like an underwhelming deal for the Twins. Sure, it addressed a need for Minnesota, but Kremer isn't a highly regarded starter like others dealt at the deadline, such as Kevin Gausman and Casey Mize.
