Angels Notes: Mike Trout Return Revealed, Halos Sign Reliever, Infielder Injured Again

In this story:
The Los Angeles Angels finally have a date for when three-time MVP Mike Trout will be activated off of the injured list. Trout last played a month ago on April 30.
Additionally, the Halos brought back a familiar face to bolster the struggling bullpen. The right-hander was designated for assignment by the Angels very recently, but has since been offered a new contract.
Finally, a key infielder acquired this offseason suffered another injury as his first year with L.A. has been plagued with ailments. This time, a knee injury has the infielder self-listing himself as 'day-to-day' ahead of his team's upcoming series against the Cleveland Guardians.

5/29/2010: Kendrys Morales hit a walk-off home run, which was an awesome moment. It was followed by a not-so-awesome moment, as he injured himself jumping on home plate to celebrate. #Angels #RepTheHalo (via MLB) pic.twitter.com/XRS9uU62Yo
