Mike Trout is headed to the 10-day injured list for the first time this season, but he hopefully won't be staying there for long.
Los Angeles Angeles manager Ron Washington told reporters Thursday night the team will place the three-time MVP on the IL, per The Athletic's Sam Blum, a day after he exited a game with left knee soreness. Washington reportedly described the injury as a bone bruise in his left knee, but added it wasn't considered serious and that there was no structural damage.
The injury occurred in the fourth inning of the Angels' game against the Seattle Mariners on Wednesday, with Trout appearing to tweak something while running out a ground ball.
