Well, this is a tough pill to swallow for fantasy owners. Mike Trout was in the starting lineup just a few hours ago but became a late scratch ahead of the Los Angeles Angeles meeting with the Astros in Houston tonight.

Trout exited Thursday night’s 8-2 Angels loss after getting plunked in the left elbow by a Cristian Javier pitch. He originally stayed in the game but was lifted a few innings later because of a left elbow contusion. There’s a chance Trout comes off the bench to pinch-hit tonight, but you should bench him in weekly fantasy leagues and look for other options at FanDuel.
