Angels Infielder Chris Taylor Unretires Just One Day After Walking Away From Baseball
The 35-year-old will rehab a left forearm fracture and continue pursuing a return to Triple-A Salt Lake, MLB.com’s Rhett Bollinger reported.
- On Saturday, Chris Taylor reversed his decision to retire from Major League Baseball, just one day after announcing his departure. He was instead placed on the minor league injured list with a left forearm fracture.
- Taylor sustained the fracture after being hit by a pitch on Wednesday, May 20, during a minor league game. The 35-year-old had been playing for the Los Angeles Angels' Triple-A affiliate, the Salt Lake Bees.
- A former All-Star, Taylor spent a decade with the Los Angeles Dodgers, winning World Series titles in 2020 and 2024. He became known as a versatile super utility man for the franchise.
- Roberts said, "I hope he, Mary and the kids can ride off into the sunset," though that retirement must wait. Taylor intends to resume playing for Triple-A Salt Lake once his forearm heals.
- With 860 hits and 110 home runs across 1,123 career games, the veteran continues his pursuit of an MLB call-up with the Angels. He remains committed despite the latest injury setback.
