Mike Trout is the reigning American League MVP and arguably the best baseball player on the planet. Trout was definitely not the MVP of picture day at the All-Star Game when he made the crucial mistake of looking away from the camera while everyone else was posing.
The end result was this:

We can't rule out Manny Machado pulling some sort of prank that distracted Trout right before the picture. But the bigger question is whether MLB only took one photo or Trout was literally looking away in every single shot and this was the best of a sorry group.
If you're worried that Trout may have a chronic inability to take photos, don't be. He clearly knows how to smile for the camera.
