TEMPE, Ariz. -- On a bright and sun-splashed day at the Los Angeles Angels' camp, the best player of his generation is free to hide in plain sight.
During a recent morning at Tempe Diablo Stadium, six-time All-Star and two-time MVP Mike Trout bounded up the steps from the clubhouse, hung a left and took part in early stretching with his fellow position players about 50 feet from three dozen media members who were oblivious to his existence.
The still and video cameras were all trained on Shohei Ohtani as he engaged in some idle chatter near the right-field line with his personal translator.
