I'm not going to get ahead of myself. Right now I'm just hoping he gets number 400 this year.

Please trade him to the Red Sox. We need Mikey Magic.

That was a big hit - Late & Close. I give Ron Washington a lot of credit moving Trout up in the order. I still believe he should be leading off like Betts, Acuna, Altuve and Semien.

Loyal to a fault? I love the guy, but can’t imagine playing in the Show for 15-20-ish total years without wanting to taste a World Series before I hung up my cleats…

Arte spent money, just not well. Throwing big contracts at aging players, then not paying or trading Ohtani, just terrible management all around.

You can blame Trout to a fault but who wouldn't want to win with the org that drafted them? Isn't that every players dream? He went once, probably thinking he'd be back again soon but the Angels have done a horrible job of building competitive playoff rosters.

During Trouts tenure, there was a season where there 6-9 hitters set an MLB record for worst WAR over the course of an entire season. Over a third of your lineup, literally contributing negatively to your teams outcome. Joke by any standard

Didn't you know? Every great athlete in history is supposed to win with the team that drafted them except Trout. He's the one the that should be team hopping to win a title. Although, if he did that I'm sure people would knock him for that too saying that he wasn't good enough to do it in LA. Can't win (literally).

Really hope the Ohtani/Trout WBC showdown was only the first act of a Ridley Scott's The Duellists style epic.

He was asked about being traded in Feb and of course he said he wants to win with his current team (who would say anything different?) but he also very deliberately left the door open for things to change down the road. I don't think he has any interest in sleepwalking through the rest of his career in Anaheim.

Crazy how much power Trout has. Looks like he barely swings the bat.
