169 Innings. On This Staff, That Number Is Everything.
José Soriano threw 169 innings in 2025. On a rotation that has been chronically decimated by injuries, that durability is not a footnote — it is the headline. The Angels have watched starter after starter miss significant time, and Soriano simply pitched. Made his starts, took the ball every fifth day, and gave the bullpen a break it desperately needed.
The raw numbers — 4.26 ERA, 1.28 WHIP — are not ace-level. He is not mistakable for Kikuchi. But at 26 years old with a legitimate four-pitch mix and a forearm that has held up despite the workload, Soriano is exactly the kind of pitcher a rebuilding rotation is built around.
The September forearm concern from 2025 is the thing to watch. He is being tracked this spring specifically because of it. If that clears cleanly, Soriano is exactly what the Angels need — a durable, reliable arm who eats innings and makes 30 starts. On this staff, that is worth more than a 3.50 ERA from a pitcher who makes 20.
