The Angels won their fourth American League West title, their first since 1986. Their playoff run was short, as they were quickly swept by the eventual World Series champion Boston Red Sox in the American League Division Series. The season was notable for being the eighth and last season the Angels played under the "Anaheim Angels" moniker; owner Arte Moreno changed the team name to the controversial "Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim" moniker the following season. It was also notable as the season in which newly signed outfielder Vladimir Guerrero won the AL Most Valuable Player award, the first time an Angels player had been so honored since Don Baylor in 1979. 2 Offseason October 27, 2003: Adam Riggs was signed as a free agent with the Anaheim Angels.https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/r/riggsad01.shtml Adam Riggs Stats November 24, 2003: Kelvim Escobar was signed as a free agent with the Anaheim Angels.https://www.baseball-reference.com/e/escobke01.shtml Kelvim Escobar Stats January 14, 2004: Vladimir Guerrero was signed as a free agent with the Anaheim Angels.Vladimir Guerrero Statistics - Baseball-Reference.com Regular season Season standings Anaheim Angels Record vs. opponents ANA Notable transactions May 30, 2004: Raúl Mondesí signed as a free agent with the Anaheim Angels.Raul Mondesi Statistics - Baseball-Reference.com August 4, 2004: Raúl Mondesí was released by the Anaheim Angels.
