Overview

  • Washington was cleared to attend Monday’s game at Globe Life Field and spent time with players and staff.
  • He experienced shortness of breath and ankle swelling in New York in mid-June, and an angiogram later showed blockages that required bypass rather than stents.
  • He was hospitalized June 23, underwent surgery June 30 and was discharged July 7 to continue recovery at home in New Orleans.
  • Washington said he quit smoking, changed his diet and expects full recovery by December.
  • Bench coach Ray Montgomery remains interim manager; the Angels are 25-31 under him after a 36-38 start under Washington, and the club holds an option on Washington for 2026.
