Kevin Newman has elected free agency.The 32-year-old infielder had 116 plate appearances with the Angels in 2025, slashing a woeful .202/.209/.272 with two home runs and 11 RBI before getting released in early August. He finished the season on a minor league deal with the Tigers, spending all of his time at Triple-A Toledo. At this stage of his career, he'll likely have to settle for a minor league contract with an invitation to major league camp -- hopefully where he can fight for a reserve role on a team's Opening Day roster.
