Mike Trout is headed to the 10-day injured list for the first time this season, but he hopefully won’t be staying there for long.
Los Angeles Angeles manager Ron Washington told reporters Thursday night the team will place the three-time MVP on the IL, per The Athletic’s Sam Blum, a day after he exited a game with left knee soreness. Washington reportedly described the injury as a bone bruise in his left knee, but added it wasn’t considered serious and that there was no structural damage.

The injury occurred in the fourth inning of the Angels’ game against the Seattle Mariners on Wednesday, with Trout appearing to tweak something while running out a ground ball. He played the field the next half-inning, but was replaced on his next at-bat as a precautionary measure.
Precautionary has been a familiar word for the Angels when it comes to Trout in recent years, as he has played more than 82 games once since 2019. He hasn’t topped 140 games at all since 2016.

That left knee has been particularly concerning, as a meniscus tear in that joint landed Trout on the IL twice last season and limited him to only 29 games played. Trout has already matched that appearance total this season.
It also hasn’t been the strongest start for Trout, who is currently slashing .179/.264/.462 with nine homers and a career-high 29.8% strikeout rate. He is currently in the seventh year of a 12-year, $426 million contract.

Em vídeo na web, o comentarista enalteceu o Belo por ter conseguido neutralizar o ímpeto rubro-negro. Na avaliação dele, muitas equipes de maiores condições financeiras e técnicas costumam passar por ‘maus bocados’ para conter o ataque do Fla, que possui um ‘cardápio’ vasto de peças. PUBLICIDADE PUBLICIDADE “O Flamengo, apesar de não ter feito gol no primeiro, era ataque contra defesa. Méritos do Botafogo-PB que soube se defender, e perdeu só de 1 a 0.

Rockies’ April has them on pace for worst-ever season, and White Sox aren’t far behind
<!--> The 2025 season has not started like the Colorado Rockies and Chicago White Sox anticipated. Well, sure, the White Sox did break the modern loss record in 2024 by dropping 121 games, and they then suffered a rash of injuries in the spring that have plagued them throughout the first month of the season. So maybe it’s more accurate to say that one of these teams is probably pretty surprised about how their April went.Given the historic nature of Chicago’s 2024 combined with the poor starts of these two teams in 2025, we have no choice but to keep an eye on their performance and give you the appropriate context. The news… is not good. But it’s also early enough that all the implications of April can change, at least in terms of avoiding becoming the answer to future trivia questions. […]

Despite ranking second all-time in the NHL in victories, he continued to mentor the Wild’s Filip Gustavsson as his backup. He received multiple send-offs on the road — from emotional ones in Pittsburgh, where he began and spent the bulk of his career, and in Montreal, near his hometown, but also in spots such as Chicago, where he played not even a full season.The showering of adulation Fleury received on his way out of the NHL also included testimonials […]
