Mike Trout Has Successful Knee Surgery
3 months agoLos Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout (knee) had successful left-knee surgery on his birthday on Wednesday, according to the team. Trout needed surgery to fix a torn meniscus in his left knee that landed him on the injured list back in April. The 33-year-old 11-time All-Star attempted to start a minor-league rehab assignment in late July but made it just one at-bat before experiencing more soreness in his knee. He should have plenty of time to heal up and be ready for the start of spring training in 2025, but this is now two years in a row that Trout has lost to injuries. Once the unquestioned top overall option in fantasy leagues, Trout is falling quickly and has developed an injury-prone label on the wrong side of 30. He managed to play in only 29 games in 2024 and hit .220/.325/.541 with 10 home runs, 14 RBI, six steals and 17 runs scored.
