Catalyst CEO on buying the Angels: “I can’t rule it out”

The reel is a clip from a livestream on Kick. The Catalyst CEO, wearing Catalyst-branded baseball jerseys, poses with fans in front of a Catalyst backdrop, and the cover pairs him with a photo of the Big A sign at Angel Stadium. Others on the stream ask whether he should buy the Angels and what he would change from Art Moreno’s approach. The answers: a buyout is possible, there are backers, and a weed smoking section would come first. The group also complains that the team failed to win with its star players.

Could the Angels be getting a new owner? Asked on a livestream about buying the team, the CEO behind the Catalyst brand (@catalyst_ceo2) said, “It’s possible. I can’t rule it out.” Juice Unlocked posted the clip on July 12, 2026.

The answer to “Should the Catalyst CEO buy the Angels?” opened with a hedge in the clip: “Look, I can’t say it’s going to happen.” The same exchange goes on, “we’ve got a couple of people behind us,” and later, “We’re working on it. Like, we’ve got some backers.” Juice Unlocked’s cover graphic says the CEO is working on a deal to buy the team.

What he would change

Someone on the stream asked what Angels owner Art Moreno is not doing. The first answer: “There’s got to be a weed smoking section.” According to the caption, the CEO said he would add one right after taking over.

The talk then turned to spending. “And you’ve got to spend a little money on players,” one voice said. Others complained that the team had two of the game’s best players and “did nothing with them.”

“It’s possible. I can’t rule it out.”

What we know, and what we don’t

The CEO did not name any backers, give a price or say whether he had contacted Moreno or Major League Baseball. His timeline was loose: “Maybe something coming this month, next month.”

Nothing in the post shows that the Angels were for sale. For now, this is a bold claim made on a livestream, not an announced deal. The caption notes that fans have kept calling for Moreno to sell the team.

“We’re working on it. Like, we’ve got some backers.”

“Maybe something coming this month, next month. We’re going to make a little bit of noise.”
