Trout went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk and two runs scored in Sunday's win over the Mariners.
EDGE Analysis
Trout took Erasmo Ramirez deep to dead center field for his first home run of September. The RBI was also Trout's first of the month -- he hasn't had many opportunities with Brandon Phillips getting off to a slow start with the club.

Trout didn't record a hit in five plate appearances Tuesday, but he managed to steal two bases in an extra-inning win over Oakland.
EDGE Analysis
Trout has stolen five bases over his last five contests, bringing his season total up to an even 20. The 25-year-old now owns an incredible .326/.463/.655 slash line with 27 home runs through 94 games. It is almost a sure bet that the five-tool superstar would have turned in his second 30-homer, 30-steal season if it weren't for a thumb injury that cost him six weeks of action. That said, we wouldn't be surprised if Trout made a serious run at that plateau with just 23 games left in season; he is just that good.

Trout went 2-for-4 with a walk, a double, and a pair of runs scored in Sunday's loss to the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
The Angels added two proven veterans in Brandon Phillips and Justin Upton at the waiver trade deadline, and it has resulted in nine runs scored for Trout in just three games this weekend. The five-category stud will always get his when he is on a baseball diamond, but it certainly helps to have more protection surrounding him in the lineup. The 26-year-old superstar is slashing a career best .331/.464/.669 through 89 games this season.

Trout went 4-for-4 with a triple, a home run and four runs scored in Wednesday's win over the Athletics.
EDGE Analysis
Trout's first two hits went for a triple and a home run, putting him in a favorable position to hit for the cycle. The star center fielder collected two more hits in his final two plate appearances, but he fell a double short of a historic night. Trout showed no ill effects of the neck stiffness that cost him two starts this week, which is great news for fantasy owners and bad news for opposing pitchers.

Trout (neck) is starting in center field and batting second Wednesday against the Athletics, Pedro Moura of the Los Angeles Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Trout was dealing with a stiff neck after colliding with the wall over the weekend, but the star center fielder is good to go for Wednesday's after sitting out the first two games of the series. The 26-year-old, who is slashing .318/.452/.646 with 26 homers and 15 stolen bases in 86 games this season, will face Kendall Graveman in his return to the lineup.

The Angels are hopeful that Trout (neck stiffness) can return to the lineup Wednesday against the A's, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
EDGE Analysis
Trout's neck is still stiff from a play at the wall in Sunday's game, and while the Angels have an off day Thursday, they are in a tight race for the second AL Wild Card spot, so they will look to slot him in Wednesday if his health allows. Cameron Maybin and Ben Revere are starting in center field and left field, respectively.

Trout, who was held out of Monday's game due to a stiff neck, is not in the lineup Tuesday against the Athletics, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
EDGE Analysis
Trout was originally expected to return to the lineup Tuesday, but his neck is apparently still bothering him enough to warrant a second consecutive day on the bench. With an off day approaching Thursday, the Angels could choose to err on the side of caution and give him Wednesday's series finale off. Consider him day-to-day for now; Cameron Maybin will slide over to center field in his stead, opening up a spot for Ben Revere to start in left field.

Trout is out of the lineup Monday for the first time since returning from injury, Pedro Moura of the Los Angeles Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Trout is 0-for-14 in his last five games, and the Angels have taken that as a sign that he needs this day off. Prior to the mini-slump, Trout was hitting at his usual MVP pace, with a .328/.452/.594 line and 10 home runs over just 34 games. Expect him to get back on track swiftly following a refreshing night on the bench.

Trout went 2-for-5 with a pair of solo homers Saturday against the Orioles.
EDGE Analysis
Trout homered in the first and third innings, giving him 26 on the year, to help the Angels earn a road victory. He's had three homers over the past two games, and the superstar owns a .339/.464/.700 slash line.

Trout went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer Friday against the Orioles.
EDGE Analysis
Trout hit his 24th blast of the year to extend the Angels lead to three runs in the fifth inning of a road loss. He continues to be the elite performer that fantasy owners expected, and despite his missed time earlier in the year, his numbers are simply jaw-dropping.
