Next month, Los Angeles Angels star Mike Trout will lead Team USA as the best in the sport come together for the 2023 World Baseball Classic.
In a tourney that will pit MLB teammates against one another, Trout was asked on Thursday during an appearance on MLB Network if he had any advice for his U.S. brethren should they have to face his Angels teammate, Shohei Ohtani.
Trout offered little in the way of wisdom.
“I don’t even know what to tell them,” Trout said. “I’m watching him from center field pitching, he’s got the best stuff in the league, I think. I don’t think I’ve talked to anyone in the league that wants to face that dude.”
