Mike Trout Hitting, Throwing, Running, Doing Agility Work
Mike Trout (knee) has begun hitting off a batting machine. He is also throwing and doing agility work on the field while running on an Alter-G treadmill at 75 percent of his body weight. Trout appears to be making good progress, but the Angels are surely going to be extra cautious with the three-time MVP and 11-time All-Star who had season-ending surgery on the same knee a year ago. The 33-year-old veteran doesn't have a specific timetable for a return, and in a best-case scenario the Angels and fantasy managers will get him back at the end of May. Fantasy managers shouldn't be dropping Trout at this point, but the 15-year veteran is now very injury-prone and appears to be sacrificing contact for power later in his career. He had nine homers in his first 29 games but was hitting just .179 (19-for-106).
