As an angels fan how can you say this straight faced. Or is that sarcasm .

The more active this thread is the more hits he gets. Unfortunately all singles or homers. Probably not hard to find .240 singles hitters who can't run. Tim tebow?

Yeah our singles hitting speedster had two meaningless singles. Tonight he will return to his record setting gidp pace.

What do you think? 6.1 scoreless for the bullpen tonight when down 8 then they'll blow s lead tomorrow...

Is that a real offer? I'm ready to invest with you for guaranteed 9% interest for 35 years.

Anyone with mlb.tv pick up the ATL wash game. That is a pathetic crowd. Looks like there are100 people there.

OBP .667 still with ops better than pujols

Is playing full games in the minor leagues really babying a player? Mike Trout doesn't seem like the kind of person to take it easy just because it's a minor-league assignment. I'll bet if a ball is hit over his shoulder Mike Trout will go as hard as he can and crash into that minor-league wall to try to catch it. That's just who he is. That's why I say if he's physically capable to play a full game he should be doing it in the major leagues. Would you feel better if he hurt himself playing in the minor-league assignment

The name of the game is winning baseball games right? Aren't there times when a rehabbing Mike Trout is better than any other option that's currently on the roster. As long as he can physically complete a full game he still better than what's currently being played. Just his presence in the lineup will affect how other people are being pitched. This will give the angels a better chance to win.

I'm sorry but if that is the plan that I'd stupid. Why would they need to limit innings in the field. Hr hurt his hand, he should have constantly doing lower body and cardio stuff. It's all about being able to swing the bat. You should be able to tell if the thumb will affect catch and throw without being in a game. Should look like this W 3abs dh Th full game if feels good should only take that long if he is having issues F bring him up.

People who really work their butts off for a much worse living might take offense to that. He gets paid $40,000 every time he walks up to the batters box. At his current batting average he only has to run once per night. It gets tiresome hearing how hard he is working and how much pain he fights through. He is very very well compensated for doing very little. He's lucky. He was born with a gift you can't teach or work for what he has done otherwise hall of famers would be everywhere. He's become a singles hitter with no speed that's good for 20-25 homers a year.

The third baseman stopped the ball, looked around for it, went to the stands for a beer and dog, came back and picked up the ball to get pujols by 10 steps. I love the hustle.

MLB has every team right where it wants them. The expanded playoffs more likely to make mediocre teams relevant. Before the expanded playoffs the angels would really pretty much be out of it. Fans would be (more) gone.

Will mike trout join the list of greatest players never to have won s World Series? Maybe he is the next ted Williams.

We should start a pool as soon as he returned for date of next dl stop.

Neither. A one legged .190 hitting pujols would still be parked right behind trout. Everyone will continue to talk about how tough he his playing in so much pain.

Lol. He's happy now no matter the games outcome. Albert first.

I think pujols lives having valbuena and Espinosa. Keeps him from having the lowest batting average in the team. Even revere has caught up (down?) to him.

I think it should be like grade school kickball. You have to stay on the base until the ball is in play.

Nice jog down the line maybin

All this talk of selling. Sad but true, the angels are only 1 game out of the playoffs. There's a lot of mediocrity out there.

They ought to review his nl vs al stats... hes gonna be be tired already from jogging out there.

Kole has seen three pitches so far.

Pujols magic number is 2...

2 innings 17 pitches. That's efficiency
