ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. – Mike Trout may not be the only guy from Millville, N.J., in the Angels system for long.
Trout was excited to see that the Angels drafted Aaron Cox, a pitcher from his hometown who happens to be one of the younger brothers of his girlfriend, Jessica.
Trout said didn’t have any conversations with the Angels about drafting Cox before it happened.
“It’s cool, growing up with him and seeing him develop,” said Trout, who is three years older than Cox. “He had a slight chance out of high school then he went to college and really got bigger and stronger.
