ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) Slugger Mike Trout is optimistic that he can be back in the Los Angeles Angels lineup shortly after the All-Star break.
Trout said before Friday’s game against the Baltimore Orioles that he started swinging a bat a couple days ago along with playing catch and jogging.
The time-time AL MVP has missed 40 games. He went on the injured list May 18 after straining his right calf the night before against the Cleveland Indians. The Angels said at the time that Trout would miss six to eight weeks.
