The Los Angeles Angels have signed veteran reliever Kenley Jansen to a one-year, $10 million contract, bringing him in as their new closer. At 37, Jansen has demonstrated consistent performance, completing 38 games and securing 27 saves for the Boston Red Sox in 2024, with a solid 3.29 ERA. Though Jansen isn't the elite powerhouse he once was, his experience and reliable ERA over recent seasons will help strengthen a bullpen that needed depth and stability.
Jansen isn't the near-automatic ninth-inning powerhouse he was earlier in his career with the Dodgers, but he's still sporting a 3.42 ERA over the past three seasons.
Kenley Jansen, 37, is coming off a fine season, finishing 38 games with 27 saves and a 3.29 ERA, now stepping into the closer's role for the Angels.
