The Angels don’t want to take a chance on the three-time AL MVP playing while he’s dehydrated, which could lead to another injury.

Trout was too sick to play the final two exhibition games of the Freeway Series last week, but then he played all four in the season-opening series against the Houston Astros. Another reason to keep Trout out of the lineup on Monday was that a player who has been bothered by a stomach issue can be dehydrated, and that could lead to a much more serious injury.
