Cancer Survivor Mancini's MLB Comeback Bid

Former Baltimore Orioles slugger Trey Mancini is pursuing a return to Major League Baseball. As of February 5, 2026, Mancini has agreed to a minor league contract with the Los Angeles Angels, which includes an invitation to their big league spring training camp. The Angels officially listed the infielder among their 27 non-roster invitees to camp. Mancini, 33, has a career batting average of .263 with 129 home runs and 400 RBIs across seven seasons. He has not played in the major leagues since 2023. He began his career with the Orioles, playing six seasons and hitting a career-high 29 homers in 2019. His career was notably impacted when he missed the 2020 season due to surgery for a colon cancer diagnosis. Mancini successfully returned to the Orioles in 2021 and later won a World Series championship with the Houston Astros in 2022. He also spent part of the 2023 season with the Chicago Cubs. Since then, Mancini has played in the minor league systems of the Cincinnati Reds, Miami Marlins, and Arizona Diamondbacks. He opted out of a minor-league deal with Arizona last July after a strong performance in Triple-A Reno, where he batted .308 with 16 homers.
