"The club will begin the process of hiring a new manager immediately," according to a statement from the Angels.
There was some speculation that General Manager Perry Minasian might also be shown the door in Anaheim, but his job appears secure. Minasian is expected to hold a news conference Tuesday to discuss Nevin's departure.
Nevin took over the team in June of last year following the firing of Joe Maddon amid a 14-game losing streak. Nevin was originally hired in 2022 as the team's third-base coach.
Since he took over as manager, the team posted a 119-149 record.
