27 Mike Trout CF

Angels manager Mike Scioscia said he's hopeful that Trout (wrist) will rejoin the lineup at some point during the club's three-game series with the Athletics this weekend, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

The Angels announced Monday that Trout would be shut down from baseball activities for a couple of days after he received a cortisone injection to aid his recovery from a bruised right wrist. If the shot provides the desired effect, Trout could resume working out by Wednesday or Thursday, with an eye on returning to the starting nine soon after. For now, the Angels will hold off on moving Trout to the 10-day disabled list, but his absence from the lineup for at least the next few games temporarily paves the way for Eric Young Jr. to see consistent at-bats in the outfield.

Trout (wrist) will be shut down from baseball activities for a couple of days, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic Los Angeles reports.

Trout was scheduled to take batting practice prior to Monday's series opener against the Tigers, but the Angels opted to shut him down for a couple of days after continued soreness in his right wrist prompted the outfielder to receive a cortisone injection. Manager Mike Scioscia said there is no immediate plan to put Trout on the disabled list, according to J.P. Hoornstra of the Los Angeles Daily News, though that could ultimately change if his wrist doesn't show enough improvement in the coming days. The two-time MVP has already missed five games as a result of the injury and will likely miss at least another two. Eric Young Jr. should continue to fill in for Trout in center field in the meantime.

Trout is still experiencing soreness in his right wrist and received a cortisone injection Monday.

Trout is out of the lineup for a fifth straight game due to a right wrist contusion that he suffered last week, and renewed soreness prompted the two-time MVP to receive an injection to help with his healing. The Angels are still considering Trout day-to-day, and he's scheduled to take batting practice prior to Monday's series opener against the Tigers, after which there should be a clearer idea regarding a possible return date.

Trout is set to miss a fifth straight game while he nurses a right wrist contusion, but the fact that he's slated to hit Monday bodes well for his chances of returning to the starting nine in the coming days. His status should clear up after he tests his wrist out Monday. In the meantime, Eric Young Jr. is once again starting in center field in his stead.

Trout is set to miss a fifth straight game as he continues to nurse a right wrist contusion. The 27-year-old reported feeling better over the weekend, though it's still unclear when he'll be cleared to rejoin the lineup. Trout should be considered day-to-day, while Eric Young Jr. will draw another start in center field with the two-time MVP sidelined.
