Angels placed OF Mike Trout on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to May 1, with a left knee contusion.
As anticipated, the 33-year-old superstar lands on the injured list once again, this time due to a bone bruise in his surgically repaired left knee. Kyren Paris and Gustavo Campero are expected to see additional time in the outfield while Trout is sidelined. Given his extensive injury history, there’s no reason to expect that Trout will be ready to be activated as soon as he’s eligible to return.
Mike Trout is slated to land on the IL with a bone bruise in his surgically repaired left knee.
No structural damage was found, but given Trout’s history of slow healing, there wasn’t any reason to expect him back within 10 days. Kyren Paris and Gustavo Campero figure to get Trout’s outfield time.
Mike Trout (knee) is not in the Angels’ starting lineup for Thursday’s series opener against the Tigers.
Trout was removed from Wednesday’s game as a precautionary measure due to soreness in his left knee. The fact that he hasn’t landed on the injured list is obviously an encouraging sign, for now at least. Jorge Soler will cover right field in his absence while Logan O’Hoppe functions as the team’s designated hitter.
Mike Trout was removed from Wednesday’s game against the Mariners for precautionary reasons with left knee soreness.
Trout told reporters following Wednesday’s contest that he’s already feeling better and expressed optimism that he’ll be ready for Thursday’s series opener against the Tigers. He also noted that he’s already undergone some preliminary testing, which didn’t reveal anything serious. It’s a significant concern for fantasy managers since Trout missed most of last season with a torn meniscus in his left knee. It sounds like his early exit was out of an abundance of caution and he’s not dealing with anything serious. He should be considered day-to-day for now.
