Mike Trout is dealing with a minor hamstring issue. "You'd never know it watching," manager Mike Scioscia said. It's part of the reason why Trout is getting his first day off of the season Sunday. The Angels don't think it's a big deal, though. Trout seems likely to be back in there after the off day Monday.

Mike Trout went 4-for-5 with a run scored in an extra-inning win over the Tigers on Thursday. It was the eighth four-hit game of his young career. Trout was in the middle of the game-winning rally in 10th inning, as he singled and came around to score on a sacrifice fly by Josh Hamilton. Trout is batting .316 with 13 home runs, 51 RBI, 19 stolen bases, and 57 runs scored through 79 games this season. Once again, he's the ultimate five-category monster in fantasy leagues.

Mike Trout continued to shred opposing pitching on Thursday, reaching base in all five plate appearances and stealing a base in a 10-9, shootout victory against the Mariners.

Mike Trout filled up the boxscore in his return to the leadoff spot Saturday, going 3-for-5 with a bases-loaded walk, two runs scored and a stolen base in a 9-5 win over the Red Sox. Trout had two doubles, both of which went off the top of the Green Monster. His return to the leadoff spot couldn't have gone much better, so Angels manager Mike Scioscia figures to stick with him there for now. Peter Bourjos (hamstring) could be alternative when he comes off the disabled list.
