Anyone suggesting Mike Trout is past his prime may want to reconsider that take.
True, Trout, 31 (he turns 32 in August), has nursed various injuries in recent seasons, playing in just a combined 89 games in 2020 (COVID-shortened year) and 2021. But he played in 119 games last season – his most since playing in 134 in 2019. And it’s what he did in those 119 games that has fans (and certainly the Angels) giddy over what Trout is still capable of over the next several years of a future Hall of Fame career.
