Mike Trout's renaissance season couldn't quite make it to the halfway point before the injury bug struck yet again.
Trout, the three-time MVP and 11-time All-Star, will be placed on the injured list before the club's Friday, June 19 game against the Athletics due to a hamstring injury, The Athletic first reported. So ends a first half of the season in which Trout played in 74 of the Angels' 75 games, hit 17 home runs, produced an .866 OPS and scored an American League-high 54 runs.
It also jeopardizes Trout's chances of earning election to the All-Star Game for the first time since 2023. The game will be played in Philadelphia on July 13, not far from his hometown of Millville, New Jersey.
He was on pace to play in at least 140 games for the first time since 2018, and at least 150 games for the first time since 2016.
The club is reportedly set to recall infielder Christian Moore from Class AAA to Yolo County for the Angels' game in West Sacramento.
