Los Angeles Angels Star Mike Trout Done For The Season With Meniscus Tear

deadline.com:

Once again, Mike Trout‘s season has ended early. The Los Angeles Angels center fielder has suffered another meniscus tear in his surgically repaired left knee, putting him out for the remainder of the season.

Trout has had several significant injuries in recent years. In an X post today, Trout wrote that an MRI a day earlier “showed a tear in my meniscus that will require surgery again — ending my hopes of returning this season.” “Playing and competing is a huge part of my life,” Trout added. “This is equally as heartbreaking and frustrating for me as it is for you, the fans.

I understand that I may have disappointed many, but believe me, I will do everything I can to come back even stronger.” The almost 33-year-old Trout suffered his first meniscus tear on April 29 and had surgery four days later.

He hoped to return within four to six weeks, but instead took a little more than 11 weeks for Trout to begin a rehab assignment.
