ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — Mike Trout is back in spring training with the Los Angeles Angels to chase his first playoff victory. The three-time AL MVP is growing weary of hearing the annual questions about when he’ll finally reach that career milestone. After the Angels’ latest failure last fall, Trout knows he won’t win a postseason game before he turns 30 this summer. The eight-time All-Star remains indefatigably optimistic about the Angels’ chances, even after owner Arte Moreno triggered yet another offseason overhaul by firing general manager Billy Eppler, Trout’s good friend. Trout is upbeat about the Halos’ prospects under new general manager Perry Minasian.
