Out of Options, Out of Time. The Stuff Was Never the Problem.

Chase Silseth made history in 2022 as the first member of the 2021 draft class to reach the majors — and the first Angel to debut in MLB before throwing a single minor league pitch since the draft. The raw arm talent has never been in doubt. The splitter is a genuine swing-and-miss weapon, and at his best he flashes the look of a mid-rotation starter or high-leverage reliever.

The problem has always been consistency. The walk rates climb, the command wavers, and the results have settled in the low-4.00s ERA range — useful, not trusted. Now he is out of minor league options, which changes the math entirely: he either holds a roster spot or the Angels designate him. That actually helps him. The spot is effectively his to lose.

This is a make-or-break year for a 25-year-old who has been on the doorstep for four seasons. The stuff has always said more than the results. 2026 is the season the gap has to close.
