Mike Trout Fantasy Stats

The Los Angeles Angels announced on Wednesday that they reinstated outfielder Mike Trout (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list before their game against the division-rival Texas Rangers at Globe Life Field and designated infielder Donovan Walton for assignment in a corresponding move. Trout is serving as the Angels' designated hitter and will bat second in Wednesday's game against Rangers left-hander MacKenzie Gore. The 34-year-old three-time MVP and 11-time All-Star makes his return to the Halos' lineup without going on a minor-league rehab assignment after missing almost three weeks with a strained right hamstring. Although the former 25th overall pick in the 2009 MLB draft has had a resurgent 2026 season, nobody is expecting him to return to an MVP level the rest of the way, and injuries will probably continue to be an issue. But fantasy managers will want to get him back into their lineups after he has hit .234/.394/.472 with an .866 OPS, 17 homers, 36 RBI, 54 runs, and seven steals in his 265 at-bats this year. Trout is hitting .200 with an RBI in just five career at-bats against Gore.

Angels superstar Mike Trout (hamstring) continues to make encouraging progress from the right hamstring strain that has sidelined him since June 18. Trout ran the bases on Sunday without any reported issues and remains on track to return during the Angels' upcoming road trip, potentially as early as July 7 or 8. The 34-year-old is looking to build on a strong start to the 2026 season, slashing .234/.394/.472 with an .866 OPS across 74 games. His power has remained intact, and he was heating up before the injury, slugging .741 with three home runs over the seven games leading up to his absence. Fantasy managers should remain optimistic that Trout can carry that momentum into his imminent return.

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout (hamstring) took batting practice on the field ahead of Saturday's game against the Boston Red Sox. He said that he ran about 90 percent on Saturday without any pain. Barring any setbacks, Trout believes he could be back in the lineup as early as Tuesday. The superstar slugger has been sidelined since June 17 due to a right hamstring strain. He was also named to the American League All-Star Team on Saturday. Trout should be able to appear in that game in Philadelphia, assuming he doesn't suffer any setbacks. Fantasy managers should check back for an update on his status early next week.

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout (hamstring) ran at 85 percent intensity and performed his normal pre-game routine before the team's 5-2 loss to the Boston Red Sox on Friday, and he's hoping to return from the 10-day injured list at some point on the team's road trip next week, according to Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com. The three-time MVP and 11-time All-Star has been out since June 17 with a strained right hamstring. "I feel fine. Feel good. I haven't felt anything in like four or five days. I've just got to get a couple of 90-95 percent back-to-back days and then be good," Trout said. The 34-year-old future Hall of Famer took 15 to 20 swings off a tee, 15 to 20 swings off a machine, and then took four rounds of batting practice on Friday, also doing agility drills on the field, which included cutting in the outfield. Trout said he likely doesn't need a minor-league rehab assignment, and he's unsure if the team will be careful with him returning to center field next week in Texas because of the turf at Globe Life Field. Barring a setback, he's also hopeful he can participate in his first All-Star Game since 2019. Before his injury, Trout was hitting .234/.394/.472 with 17 homers, 36 RBI, 54 runs, and seven steals in 74 games, bouncing back from several injury-plagued seasons in recent years.

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout (hamstring) is improving and getting "really close" to returning from the 10-day injured list, manager Kurt Suzuki told Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com. Trout landed on the IL in the middle of June, but he's expected to hit on the field this weekend. Barring a setback, he will have a chance to be reinstated and rejoin the major-league roster next week before the All-Star break from July 13-16. Trout recently said that he's hopeful he'll be ready to take part in the Midsummer Classic, but he's unlikely to stay in the Home Run Derby field. The 34-year-old three-time MVP and 11-time All-Star has struggled to stay healthy on the wrong side of 30, but thankfully, his hamstring injury isn't that serious. Before landing on the shelf, Trout was having a resurgent season for the last-place Angels, hitting .234/.394/.472 with an .866 OPS, 17 home runs, 36 RBI, 54 runs scored, and seven stolen bases across his 265 at-bats. Trout is no longer the elite five-category producer he once was, but the future Hall of Famer is still valuable in all fantasy leagues when he's active.

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout (hamstring) said he took 30 swings on Saturday -- 15 off a tee and 15 flips -- and said it felt "great," according to Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register. Trout also said he ran at around 50% intensity. The 34-year-old three-time MVP started doing baseball activities earlier this week and has been progressing, but he's not quite ready to face live pitching or go on a minor-league rehab assignment. He said that he's unlikely to participate in the Home Run Derby during the mid-July All-Star break, but he remains hopeful that he'll be cleared in time to take part in the Midsummer Classic. That means that barring a setback, Trout could come off the 10-day injured list in early July. The 11-time All-Star and nine-time Silver Slugger has not been able to stay healthy in recent seasons and is no longer the five-category stud he was in the prime of his career, but he has been pretty productive for fantasy managers in 2026, slashing .234/.394/.472 with an .866 OPS, 17 homers, 36 RBI, 54 runs scored, and seven steals across 74 games. He needs to remain stashed in all fantasy leagues.

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout (hamstring) said he has progressed to light jogging on Friday and didn't have any pain, according to Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com. Trout is scheduled to swing the bat on Saturday and is pleased with his progress. He is still hopeful that he can return from the 10-day injured list in time for the All-Star game in mid-July, but he ruled out participating in the Home Run Derby. "I'm leaning toward not doing it. Obviously it'd be cool to do it, but I probably won't do it. I was thinking about it, but then hurt my leg. So that's what kind of threw it off there," Trout said. The 34-year-old three-time MVP and 11-time All-Star will be a starter in the All-Star game if he's cleared to play by then, but he's not going to push it. Although he's hitting only .234 (62-for-265), Trout was having a resurgent campaign in 2026 before his hammy injury, producing 17 home runs, 12 doubles, 36 RBI, 54 runs scored, and seven stolen bases across 74 games and 335 plate appearances. Fantasy managers should keep the aging superstar in an IL spot in all leagues.

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout (hamstring) did some on-field exercises earlier this week, according to Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com. "He's progressing. We still don't know the timetable, but I think the activity level is ramping up a little bit, and I know he's starting to feel better, so that's a good thing," manager Kurt Suzuki said. It's unclear if Trout is close to embarking on what he expects to be a short minor-league rehab assignment, and it's unknown if he actually has a shot to make it back from the 10-day injured list before the All-Star break in mid-July. The 34-year-old three-time MVP and future Hall of Famer has been on the IL since June 17. The 16-year veteran has had trouble staying on the field in recent years, but the good news is that his latest injury doesn't appear to be all that serious. Before getting hurt, Trout was having a resurgent season in 2026 with 17 home runs, 36 RBI, 54 runs scored, and seven stolen bases in 74 games played. Trout is no longer the five-category stud he once was -- he hasn't hit over .240 since 2023 -- but he deserves to be stashed in an IL spot in all fantasy formats until he returns.

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout (hamstring) is heading to the 10-day injured list with a hamstring injury, sources told Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic. In a corresponding move, the Angels are calling up infielder Christian Moore. It's unclear exactly how serious Trout's injury is, but he'll be on the shelf until at least June 28 with yet another injury. The 34-year-old three-time MVP and 11-time All-Star has had a resurgent 2026 season to this point, and he was in the midst of an eight-game hitting streak with three home runs, five RBI, seven runs, and two steals before landing on the IL. In his 16th year in the big leagues, Trout has hit .234/.394/.472 with an .866 OPS, 17 home runs, 36 RBI, a league-leading 54 runs scored, and seven stolen bases across 74 games and 335 plate appearances. If his hamstring injury isn't that serious, Trout could return to the Angels before the All-Star break in mid-July. In the meantime, Jose Siri will likely start in center in Anaheim. Although Trout no longer hits for average, he can still contribute elsewhere, and he still gets on base plenty. Keep him stashed in an IL spot everywhere. UPDATE: Trout said that his concern level with his right hamstring is "pretty low," according to Bally Sports West's Erica Weston.

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout has looked like his vintage self early in the 2026 season, hitting .248/.414/.510 with 11 home runs, 23 RBI, 33 runs scored, and five stolen bases through his first 186 plate appearances. The 34-year-old owns a ridiculous 20.4% walk rate, and his 25.8% strikeout rate is a significant improvement from the 32% mark he posted in 2025. Trout's quality of contact is also elite, as his 23.2% barrel rate would be the best mark of his career over a full season. Despite all the encouraging indicators, fantasy managers still must consider selling high on Trout. While he's managed to stay healthy so far this year, Trout has topped 500 plate appearances in a season just once in 2019. Given how this decade has gone for Trout, his best stretch of 2026 may be already behind him. Trout's upside is high enough that holding him is defensible, but fantasy managers are also justified in moving him if they receive an offer that's too good to pass up.
