Overview
- Mike Trout has been placed on the 10-day injured list after sustaining a bone bruise in his surgically repaired left knee during an April 30 game against the Mariners.
- Angels manager Ron Washington confirmed there is no structural damage, and Trout is expected to rest and potentially return by mid-May following re-evaluation.
- Trout's injury occurred while sprinting to first base, marking another setback in a career increasingly defined by recurring lower-body issues.
- This season, Trout matched his 2024 total of 29 games played but has struggled offensively, batting .179 with nine home runs and 18 RBIs.
- The Angels, currently 12-18, face ongoing challenges as Trout's availability remains a critical factor for their competitiveness in the AL West.
