Mike Trout News

Los Angeles Angels,MLB

Mike Trout isn't going anywhere. As usual.

have started the season with an 8-9 record which is currently good enough for second place in the American League West. If the season ended today, five-and-a-half months early, they would miss the postseason by two games. It would be the 10th consecutive season that the franchise failed to reach the playoffs. Fortunately, there is still plenty of time for the team to make up ground and sneak into the wild card, or even win the AL East.

As ESPN points out, Trout's huge contract would be tough for any team to acquire, still the rumors persist while Trout refuses to demand a trade. So he watches Shohei Ohtani sign across town for $700 million and pushes the front office to replace him with more star power and they responded by not doing that.

Young noticed that during their first meeting four months ago, when he kept hearing one phrase over and over again from Trout -- that he wants to get back to"playing baseball." It means he wants to run again. More specifically, he wants to get back to stealing bases.
