Scouting Report: Zach Neto
Los Angeles Angels | SS
Overall
Summary
Zach Neto is experiencing a difficult 2026 season after a strong 2025 campaign (26 HR, 26 SB). Through early May, he's hitting .223 with 7 home runs, 20 RBIs, and 7 stolen bases in 44 games. After a brutal 0-for-23 slump, Neto snapped out of it with a single and home run on May 6 against the White Sox, followed by a walk-off two-run homer on May 5 against the Athletics to end a no-hit bid. He was subsequently dropped from leadoff to sixth in the batting order on May 13 due to a .181 average with a 34.7% strikeout rate over his last 95 plate appearances. Recent reports show improvement with 7 hits in his last 8 games (.290 average) with 4 extra-base hits, suggesting he may be breaking out of his early-season struggles.
Strengths
- Walk-off home run heroics against Athletics
- Snapped 23-game hitless streak with single and home run on May 6
