Description: Los Angeles Angels DH Mark Trumbo will be tested by Jeremy Guthrie as he's hitless in six at-bats versus the Royals starter. | Insight: Trumbo is batting .381 over his past five games and has 11 home runs this season to put him among the league leaders. This matchup, however, is not favorable. | | |
| Hot | 5/4/2013 8:54:00 PM |
Description: Los Angeles DH Mark Trumbo has homered in five of the last six games. | Insight: Trumbo ripped 21 homers in a span of 46 games from May 27 to July 20 last year, so we know what he can do when he's hot. However, fantasy owners shouldn't be fooled by his .295 average when he has 33 strikeouts. He hit .306 with 65 strikeouts in 288 at-bats in the first half last season, but finished the season with a .268 average. | | |

Description: Los Angeles DH Mark Trumbo is a career .167 hitter versus Texas starter Yu Darvish with six strikeouts and a .472 OPS. | Insight: Trumbo is rolling right now. He's had five multi-hit games in his last seven outings to raise his average from .279 to .316. However, he's not hitting the long ball and that isn't likely to turn around against Darvish. Sit him. | | |

Description: Angels DH Mark Trumbo has an ugly history versus Oakland youngster Jarrod Parker, going hitless in eight at-bats including five strikeouts. | Insight: Trumbo had a couple of two-hit games over the weekend to bring his average to .280 with a homer and five RBI. Avoid this matchup. | | |

He went 1-for-15 (.067) with five strikeouts against him. | Insight: Trumbo hit his first home run Saturday but he didn't perform well against Darvish last season and Darvish is coming off a near-perfect game against the Astros. | | |

Description: ESPN's Buster Olney says the Angels aren't looking to trade outfielder Mark Trumbo despite the team's signing of Josh Hamilton. | Insight: The Angels' lineup wouldn't be nearly as intimidating without Trumbo (.268, 32 HR, 95 RBI) hitting in the middle of the order. It seems like Peter Bourjos is the most likely Los Angeles outfielder to be traded this offseason. Bourjos had a quiet season (.220, 3 HR, 19 RBI in 168 at bats) but scouts like his speed and believe he'll be a solid contributor if given the chance to play on a daily basis. | | |
