Trout went 2-for-4 with a home run, three RBI, two runs and a walk in an 8-3 victory against the Orioles on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

The 27-year-old only has two home runs in May and has seen his average dip below .300 early this month, but he still owns an impressive slash line. Trout has walked 35 times and only struck out 21, giving him an impressive .468 on-base percentage. And with fewer recorded at-bats because of all those walks, his eight bombs this year don't look so bad. Case in point, Trout has posted a .575 slugging percentage. He also has a .292 average, 24 RBI, 25 runs and five steals in 113 at-bats.

Trout went 1-for-3 with a double, two walks, a stolen base and a run Tuesday in the Angels' 5-2 win over the Tigers.

EDGE Analysis

Trout is now 5-for-5 on stolen-base attempts to keep himself on pace for a fourth consecutive season of at least 20 steals. After reaching base three times Tuesday, Trout now owns a .475 on-base average for the season, narrowly edging out the Dodgers' Cody Bellinger (.474) for the best mark in the majors among players with at least 100 plate appearances.

Trout went 2-for-4 with a double, walk and three RBI in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Blue Jays.

EDGE Analysis

Trout cleared the bases with his fourth-inning double, allowing him to surpass his RBI total (two) from the previous 10 games combined. The limited run-producing opportunities are almost entirely a result of the poor talent around him, as Trout has otherwise performed at his usual elite level since signing his record-breaking contract extension in March. He has reached base in nearly half of his plate appearances (.492 OBP) while trimming his strikeout rate to a career-low 11.3 percent.

Trout went 1-for-4 with a pair of walks and a stolen base Monday in the Angels' 4-3 loss to the Yankees in 14 innings.

EDGE Analysis

Upon rejoining the lineup April 15 following a nearly week-long absence due to a groin strain, Trout was limited to designated-hitter duties in his first four games back from the injury. He returned to his usual role in the outfield over the weekend and no longer looks to be bothered by the groin issue, as his theft Monday likely confirms. The injury aside, Trout has been exceptional to begin the season, turning in a 1.211 OPS while striking out in a career-best 12.5 percent of his 88 plate appearances.

Trout will serve as the designated hitter and is hitting second Thursday against Seattle.

EDGE Analysis

While it's good news that Trout is in the lineup yet again, he still hasn't returned to the field since suffering a groin injury. He participated in pregame warmups Thursday with the hope of gaining clearance to man center field, but the Angels will keep him in the designated hitter spot for one more night. The former MVP is expected to start at center field Friday, per J.P. Hoornstra of the Los Angeles Daily News.

Trout (groin) went 0-for-2 with three walks and two runs Monday in the Angels' 12-7 loss to the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

After missing nearly a week with the groin injury, Trout was eased back into action as the Angels' designated hitter and made a huge impact on offense without even recording a hit. The Angels could limit Trout's usage in the outfield and encourage him to act conservatively on the basepaths until the groin issue is further in the rear-view mirror, but it shouldn't prove overly detrimental to his fantasy outlook.

Trout (groin) is back in the lineup as the Angels' designated hitter Monday against the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

A groin strain kept Trout away from the team during the Angels' weekend series with the Cubs, but he's improved as the team hoped and won't end up needing a trip to the injured list. It remains to be seen when he'll retake his place in center field, which Brian Goodwin occupies Monday.

Trout will join the Angels on Monday in Texas after testing Sunday showed further improvement to his right groin.

EDGE Analysis

Trout remained in Anaheim for the weekend trip to Chicago but he appears to be progressing as planned from the right groin strain. The 27-year-old should still be considered day-to-day but for now looks to have avoided a trip to the injured list.

Trout has reduced swelling in his strained groin but will remain in Anaheim for treatment before being reevaluated Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Trout seems to be trending in the right direction, so he should be able to avoid a trip to the injured list if he receives good news Sunday. The weather in Chicago over the weekend is expected to be poor, which may have factored into the team's decision. Trout could link up with his teammates in Texas on Monday if he's cleared the day before.

Trout (groin) is not expected to head to the injured list, but he may miss the entirety of the team's weekend series against the Cubs, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Trout is still in California on Friday while the rest of his team is at Wrigley Field. He's being checked on by team doctors but will reportedly not require an MRI. The team is considering having him sit out over the weekend and then rejoin his teammates Monday in Texas.
