Mike Trout Eyeing Return to Outfield
Mike Trout is eyeing a return to the outfield after the All-Star break and is planning on resuming drills in the outfield, according to The Sporting Tribune's Thomas Murray. However, there's no exact timetable on when Trout will return to right field. Trout has been a full-time designated hitter for the Halos since returning on May 30 from a stint on the injured list due to a bone bruise on his right knee, the same knee he had surgery on last year for a torn meniscus. He has hit .278 with seven home runs and 18 RBI in 37 games since his return, a positive sign for the three-time MVP that has dealt with injuries the last few years. When/if Trout returns to duties in right field, Jorge Soler will shift to a full-time DH role in Anaheim. Expect the Angels to give Trout plenty of rest in the DH spot, too, if he returns to right field.
