Mike Trout Open to Position Change for Health
News summary

Los Angeles Angels star Mike Trout is considering a position change from center field to a corner outfield spot or designated hitter as he recovers from two knee surgeries. Trout, who has faced significant injury challenges over the past few seasons, acknowledges that adapting his role could enhance his durability and allow him to remain in the lineup more consistently. At 33 years old, Trout has played only 29 games this season, significantly impacting his performance metrics. He recognizes that discussions regarding his position will be necessary during the offseason, as he had previously resisted such changes. Despite his injuries, Trout has demonstrated a strong batting ability, achieving 10 home runs with an OPS+ of 138 in limited appearances. His ultimate goal remains to contribute effectively on the field, whether that involves playing a different position or taking on a reduced role to protect his health.
