Likely to bat third in 2021 Angels manager Joe Maddon said Wednesday that he's leaning toward hitting Trout third in the lineup this season, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

Impact Trout has been somewhat quiet at the plate this spring, slashing .250/.417/.393 with one home run, one double, six RBI, four runs, seven walks and 10 strikeouts over 14 Cactus League games. Trout has batted second over most of his career, but he mainly batted third during the 2020 season and appears likely to do so once again in 2021.

Putting together quiet spring Trout is batting just .167 (3-for-18) with a home run, two RBI and seven strikeouts so far in Cactus League play.

Impact Trout hasn't made much noise in camp thus far, but it would be unwise to slide him down your draft board based on his performance in exhibition games. The superstar outfielder batted only .240 during spring/summer camp in 2020 and still went on to post a very Trout-like campaign, compiling a .993 OPS and ranking fourth in the league with 17 home runs.
