Angels Star Mike Trouts bad happiness continues

The angels place the experienced Star Mike Trout on the injured list, said Ron Washington Reporters after the game against the Tigers on Thursday evening about Sam Blum from The Athletic. Trout has to do with a bone breeding on the left knee, although Washington emphasized that the injury is not considered “too serious” and that the knee of the 33-year-old does not cause any structural damage. As stated by Alden Gonzalez from ESPN of ESPN, Trout suffered several meniscus cracks in various parts of his left knee last year, which required two separate surgical interventions. This is the knee that he is currently suffering from a bone breed cast.

While the fact that the disease of trout is not considered seriously, at least a little encouraging, it is difficult to expect that fans in the long history of trout will take up a lot of comfort. Trout played only 29 games last year based on these meniscus surgery mentioned above and missed all to 36 games of the 2021 season due to a calf base. He played in just 82 games in 2023 because of a Hamate fracture, and what was closest to a healthy season trout in this decade was his 2022 campaign, where he played 119 games. Even this year, however, he was still exposed to a considerable time due to back problems.

It is a number of different injuries that now extend in half a decade, and this lack of time on the field has eliminated trout from his base as the top talent of the game after keeping this position practically unchallenged for a decade. The eleven-time all-star and three-time AL MVP numbers speak for themselves because he has a career. This year the Angels made the decision to move trout from his home stream into the right field, hopefully to help him stay fresher and avoid injuries. Despite this change, Trout's first trip to the injured list of the year is only 29 games with which he ended the 2024 season.

In recent years, Trout has retained production at the superstar level itself in the seasons that were abbreviated by injuries. While he was on the field for only 266 of Anaheim's 648 games from 2021 to 2024, he set an incredible .276/.376/.575 (160 WRC+) and collected 12 FWAR in these 266 games. However, that was not the case this year. With 121 trips on the plate, the trout with a 96 WRC+was slightly below the league average. While he grabbed nine Homer and went with a healthy (if reduced) 9.9% clip, Trout have 29.8% strike rates and shockingly low .159 Babip only reached 0.187 with a percentage of 0.264. If he played a full season, trout would certainly not say this incredibly low Babip and enjoy enough positive regressions to be an above -average overall slower, but the increased strikes and reduction are a legitimate reason for concern about his ability to stay a superstar, even if it would remain in the field for a complete campaign.

Of course, all of this remains largely speculative until the trout rises again on the field for a significant period of time. While the club indicates the problem as bone bloody products that it can return relatively quickly, it is a diagnosis that is associated with a lot of variability in relation to the schedule. On the more optimistic side, Cody Bellinger missed about a month when he suffered a bone bleeding cast with the Cubs in 2023. Last season they are in 2023 and Kyle Tucker in the cases of Anthony Rendon and Kyle Tucker.

On July 4, Rendon fouled a ball from his left leg two years ago and missed the rest of the season with what the angels called a bone bleeding, although Rendon himself said reporters that he actually diagnosed a broken tibia. A similar situation last year played in the Alwest between Tucker and the Astros, where Tucker missed a little more than three months, since Houston originally referred to a bone bleeding cast, but was later emphasized that it was a small shining fracture. It should be noted that smaller fractures such as the rendon and tuckers compared to the bone blue in relation to the prescribed treatment are not different, which makes the distinction to a certain extent intangible.

Nevertheless, some players can return from bone blue after only one month, while others could miss half a season or longer, since a similar problem shows the uncertainty that now faces trout and angels. While it seems unrealistic to expect a fixed schedule for the return of trout, since this uncertainty and the lengthy of the veterans' lengthy injury are expected fairly, it is fair to expect a considerable absence. Ryan Noda, Scott Kingery and Prospect Matthew Lugo are among the possible options that could be called up to connect with Jo Adell and Taylor Ward in the Angels outfield mix, while trout are on the shelf.
