Angels star Mike Trout, left, has stolen only six bases in the previous four seasons and the team has mostly had him stop running in order to prevent injuries, but he says he’s ready to go again and new Manager Ron Washington, right, says he won’t stand in his way. That’s one shy of the most he’s had in a season since 2019.
As injuries have taken their toll on him, though, Trout, 32, has been anchored to first base. He has stolen a total of six bases over the previous four seasons. Asked how many steals he’d like this season, Trout said: “I think 20-plus would be cool. Thirty would be really cool.”“I don’t want Mike stealing 50 bags because I don’t want him hitting the ground that much, but if Mike decides he wants to get 50 bags and he can get 50, I’m not going to stop him.”Longtime Angels pitcher Jered Weaver returned to Angel Stadium to throw out the ceremonial first pitch on Friday.
Weaver made some headlines in spring 2023 when he made a comment on Twitter about the fact that the Angels hadn’t invited him back as a guest instructor, as they had done with many other former Angels players.“I was out at a bar with my buddies that night,” Weaver said with a smile. “That’s how that Tweet came about. Since then I backed off Twitter a little bit.”Right-handed reliever Robert Stephenson is scheduled for another bullpen session on Saturday, and then live batting practice on Monday.
