2017 MLB All-Star Game: Angels OF Mike Trout named American League starter

We never get tired of saying this: Mike Trout is good at baseball.

On the same day the Angels announced their star would soon begin his rehab assignment in the Inland Empire, Trout was named a starter for the 2017 MLB All-Star Game on Sunday.

It’s the sixth ASG selection for Trout and his fifth straight starting nod.

The two-time All-Star Game MVP status for the game remains up in the air as he continues to recover from left thumb surgery.
