Mike Trout Hitting Off Machine
1 year agoLos Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout (wrist) has progressed to hitting off a pitching machine on Friday. The 32-year-old recently took some swings with soft-toss, but now is taking a step forward and hitting against a machine. It's worth noting that the machine only threw breaking balls to Trout. The superstar slugger hasn't advanced to facing high-velocity fastballs yet. Trout continues to work his way back from a hamate bone fracture that has kept him sidelined since early July. The Angels haven't given a clear timetable for his return yet, but the hope is that he'll play in August.
