Mike Trout is going to be out for about five to seven more weeks with his right calf strain.
The LA Angels placed him on the Injured List on May 18th. Trout isn’t the iron man he used to be. From 2012 to 2016, Trout never found himself on the IL.
He’s still by no means an injury-prone player, but he has faced some injuries since 2017 that foreshadow that he’s not as durable as he once was.
