The LA Angels were well-represented in the 2021 All-Star Game starting lineup selections last night, penciling both Mike Trout and Shohei Ohtani into the AL lineup.
Both players undoubtedly deserved to be selected.
Mike Trout will of course not play in the game, unfortunately, due to his calf injury. Many have issues with Trout being selected (click this link to read me teeing off on them), but that’s pretty delusional and those seem to be miserable people.
