Los Angeles Angels Keep Pitcher Reid Detmers Amid Trade Talks, Place Mike Trout on Injured List

Los Angeles Angels left‑hander Reid Detmers has emerged as one of the most coveted pitchers at the upcoming trade deadline after posting a 0.45 ERA over his last three starts and a 1.36 ERA in his last six. Despite interest, the Angels are expected to retain him through the 2026 season, citing his two more years of team control and his growing role in the rotation.

Center fielder Mike Trout was placed on the 10‑day injured list with a right hamstring strain sustained while running to first base in an 8‑1 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks. Trout, 34, has appeared in 74 of 75 games this season and is batting .234 with 17 home runs. He expects a short recovery and hopes to return soon to help the Angels’ push for the postseason.
