Mike Trout Found Out About a Possible Position Switch on Twitter

When in doubt, check Twitter.

Mike Trout is finally healthy after a shortened 2021 season with a calf injury. No one wants baseball to be without the best player in the world, and Trout is still very much in his prime.

Trout might have to move out of center field eventually as he gets older, eventually his time will come like any player, minus Tom Brady of course.

The bad news is that Trout found out that the Angels were already considering moving him to another position, he found out on Twitter:

Just imagine not talking about a potential position switch with your franchise superstar. I mean always run it by Trout before it ends up on Twitter.

These kind of communication lapses are how problem begin to brew.
