Angels Superstar Mike Trout Had Surgery on His Foot

It is the commonly held belief that Angels center fielder Mike Trout is the best overall player in baseball. It is very hard to argue against that statement when you take a close look at his numbers. Trout has had another huge season in 2019. His numbers are so good that many people believe that he should be the Most Valuable Player of the American League. There are some people who disagree because the Angels are a losing team. There is a belief by some people that the person who wins the MVP should be from a team that contends for a playoff spot.

Trout currently leads the American League with 45 home runs. He also has the highest slugging percentage, on-base percentage and on-base plus slugging percentage. He once again knocked in and scored more than 100 runs. The numbers that he has put up are definitely as good or better than any other player. The problem is that people have a very hard time voting for a guy who is with a team that has a losing record. It remains to be seen if the members of the baseball media will be willing to ignore that and vote for Trout anyway. There will be a lot of angry people if Trout does take home that award.

Trout started to feel very bad pain in one of his feet. He tried to pay through the pain because he did not want to miss any games. However, the pain reached a point where Trout could no longer run or walk the way he could before. The time came where Trout decided to get surgery to fix a pinched nerve in one of his feet. It has been discovered that the cause of the pain could possibly be a nerve that was pinched. Trout was very relieved that the cause of his pain had been determined. Now he will be looking to start his rehab process now that the surgery is over with. He hopes to be ready for spring training next year.

The Angels already had a very bad record. Therefore, there was no reason to try to get Trout on the field again this year. There is only a week to go. Trout says that everything went well so far. However, he will not know for sure how the surgery went until he puts weight on the foot and tries to run on it.
