Angels owner says team discussing new Trout deal

Angels owner Arte Moreno said the team has had internal discussions regarding a new contract for outfielder Mike Trout, who can become a free agent after the 2020 season.

The two-time AL MVP is owed $33.25 million in each of the next two seasons, completing a $144.5 million, six-year contract.

The 27-year-old Trout did not want to discuss his contract situation on the Angels’ first day of full squad workouts.

“I enjoy it here. I’m having fun,” he said. “Obviously, losing’s not fun, but I enjoy playing this game. I leave it out on the field every night, every day, and I go from there.”
