Los Angeles Angels' star outfielder, Mike Trout, underwent surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his left knee on Friday. The three-time AL MVP is expected to make a full recovery and return to play later this season.
Trout had a partial medial menisectomy procedure performed in California. The team confirmed that he will begin his rehabilitation process in Anaheim.
This marks the fourth consecutive year that the 11-time All-Star has faced a significant injury setback. Angels manager reported that the surgery revealed the expected issue and nothing more, providing reassurance to the team and fans.
Trout, who was leading the majors with 10 home runs, 14 RBIs, and 6 steals before his injury, expressed frustration at being sidelined once again. Despite the setback, the team remains optimistic about his recovery.
Trout's manager emphasized the positive mindset and determination Trout possesses, highlighting his eagerness to return to the field as soon as possible. Trout, who has faced injury challenges in recent seasons, is known for his resilience and work ethic.
Having missed significant playing time in previous seasons due to various injuries, Trout is no stranger to setbacks. However, the Angels organization and fans are hopeful that he will make a strong comeback once again.
Trout's absence will be felt on the field, but the team is rallying behind him as he begins his rehabilitation journey. The Angels are looking forward to his return and are confident in his ability to overcome this latest obstacle.
Trout's dedication to his recovery and his passion for the game are evident, and his teammates and fans are eagerly awaiting his return to action.
