Mike Trout is going to be a dad!
On Thursday night, the Angels announced that they have placed Trout on the paternity list. For those of you who are unfamiliar with how that works, here’s a quick explanation.
The paternity leave list may be used when a player chooses to leave the team to attend the birth of his child. A player placed on the paternity leave list must miss the next team game, but no more than three games. The team can use another player from its 40-man roster to replace a player on the paternity leave list.
