Angels' Mike Trout suffers another major injury, ending season for three-time MVP

Mike Trout's 2024 season never really got going, sowing doubt about one of the game's greatest all-time players as he gets further into his 30s.
Trout tore the meniscus in his knee again after just one game of a rehabilitation assignment, Los Angeles Angels general manager Perry Minasian told reporters Thursday, ending Trout's season after he played in just 29 games.
Trout, the three-time American League MVP who turns 33 on Wednesday, has not played more than 119 games in a season since 2019, when he won his third MVP award. He was limited to 82 games last year and in 2021 played in just 36 games, none after May 17 as a calf injury lingered for the remainder of that year.
Trout played his last game this season on April 29 and on May 3 underwent surgery to repair torn meniscus in his left knee. He opted for surgery rather than playing through the pain of the injury, thinking it would safeguard him from further damage. Yet he was shipped back to Anaheim after just one rehab game in Salt Lake City last month.
Trout has hit 378 career home runs and has a lifetime .991 OPS. His 86.1 career WAR ranks 32nd all time, between Chipper Jones and George Brett.
