Prob not but it's another mysterious injury where he cant even identify when it happened.

Meniscus injuries aren't always easy to know when they happen, I tore the medial meniscus in my left knee about 15 years ago and I had no idea when or how it happened either, one day I knelt down and felt a little something in my knee, figured it was a just a bruise or something minor since it didn't hurt a lot and the pain was minimal, it only hurt when I would kneel down or walk up a flight of stairs, most of the time I didn't even notice it, when it wouldn't go away I saw an orthopedist who ordered an MRI, that's when I found out. When you sprain or tear an ACL or MCL, you know right away something isn't right, but a meniscus is different, he could have done it running the bases or swinging a bat, there's no way to pin point when it happens since there's typically no immediate pain

Trout should be built like Garvey, not a late career Bonds.

Then he should play out the season as a DH and get the surgery in the off season. From what I've heard the surgery requires 1-2 months(prob 2), it happened in april so he "should" be looking at a return in july(perhaps after the all star game)?

Just watch, he'll be out till late aug or sept and will make a token appearance.

Playing with a torn meniscus is a bad idea, his knee is weakened which could lead to a more serious injury, if this were August or September and the Angels were fighting for a playoff berth, maybe, but at the start of May and playing for a team with no chance at the postseason, the prudent thing is to take care of it now. I know you like to shit on him whenever possible, but taking care of the injury now is the right thing to do

Fine but then I want his ass on the field july 1st, no excuses.

I HAVE SPOKEN!

By the way Byron Buxton went down yesterday for the twins with knee soreness, watch for him to miss extended time like he does every year.

watch as a the drama queen tries to get attention, the ump tells him to get his worthless ass off the field, lol. Sorta.
