Half a Trout is still a pretty large fish
They’ve had shoulders, elbows and ankles, an adductor and an oblique, a forearm, a knee, a wrist, a hamstring and a lumbar.
They’ve had strains, sprains and tears, a subluxation and an impingement and an absurdly swelled amount of inflammation.
The one thing the 2018 Angels haven’t had, medically speaking at least, is a hurt Mike Trout.
“It’s weird,” Trout said, looking down at his right index finger. “Got a little sprain in there.”
He walked in the first inning against the Blue Jays and scored the game’s initial run, meaning, at that point, he had reached base in 16 of his previous 17 plate appearances.
