Angels' Mike Trout could land on the disabled list for the first time in his career

The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim entered Sunday with a 26-26 record, good for second place in the AL West. Alas, no Halos fan is feeling too happy about things right now.

That's in part because the Angels dropped Sunday's game against the Miami Marlins by a 9-2 final, giving them six losses in their last 10 tries. The more depressing aspect, however, is that Mike Trout, the best player in baseball, left Sunday's game following a head-first slide with what's being called a sprained thumb.

Here's the latest, per Jeff Fletcher of the Orange County Register:

Initial X-rays revealed that Trout doesn't have a fracture, but an MRI on Monday will show the extent of soft tissue damage.
