Bryce Harper > Mike Trout ... eventually

[You mad bro]

this thread is a troll thread

bet u were just waiting for harper to have a better start this season so you can start talking sheet about trout

I said it was my opinion after watching the 2 play ball .. You have already seen what trout can do .. You didnt see harpers full potential yet .. Will bryce hit 400 this year i highly doubt it .. But by the end of his career he will have better numbers and this is all my opinion

[You mad bro]

What WAR are you looking at? Trout's WAR was much higher. Give me any center fielder who plays plus plus defense over any 3b as long as their production behind the plate is similar. Trout played in less games than Cabrera and his team had a better record. And the fact that you think think Anaheim has a better park to hit in than Detroit shows you aren't very well informed.

Ummmm it is .. Angels play in what 80+ degree weather all year in LA? While Detroit was hitting almost 50 against the yankee series .. You tell me who would rather hit in 50 degree weather or 80 ... Why do you think yankee stadium in the summer is a bandbox more than anything ... 90 degree weather which means the ball travels more.. Its science

Also in interviews of many pitchers they were asked who is the scariest hitter they've faced .. Most said ichiro in his prime and others said miggy .. Trouts name was barely mentioned

this is incorrect ...mike trout had the highest war of 2012 (and of any active position player for any season ...21st best season EVER in mlb) at 10.9 ...cabrera finished at 7.3 ...harper at 5.2 ...bonds (2001, 2002) is the only player in relatively recent history (you must go to joe morgan in 1975) to post a better war than trout in 2012

Thanks for the correction. That being said....Angels still underperformed. Tigers made it to the post season and were AL central champs largely due to Miggy.

Austin Jackson, Prince Fielder, Justin Verlander?

I don't think you're really going on a limb with your statement. You'd be favored -150 if there was a wager for it. Harper is a monster. He needs to fkn quit with all his queer hair-do's though.
Only thing Trout has a big lineup to help him for the next 6 years. Harper still needs a little help with that.

Harper's hair-do isn't queer, it is just totally Kenny Powers. He knows what he is doing. That being said if i saw some non-baseball superstar with that hair cut on the streets, I would punch him in the face.

Trout played one year. Dimensions play a much larger factor since most of the games are played during the summer.

Had respect for Archie until these 2 horrible comparisons. Looks like someone hacked onto his name almost.

[Chi_archie]

Agbayani had a top ten all-time MLB rump!

[You mad bro]

lol and the mets are still paying them right?

[You mad bro]

Bryce harper = beast

[Chi_archie]

Bryce is like Aaron Rowand, but slightly better

[stevenash]

And not a Nashy post was found

[Chi_archie]

trout!

100 HR's 100 SB's

[jjgold]

Bryce average

no natural talent

man made swings and does not work long term

[BigDeem5]

Trout > Harper..

Harper's long swing will get him in trouble... I don't see him hitting .300 this year or in the next few for years to come..

Could see .280-.290

Lol at all the jokes

[opie1988]

Had an awesome in-person encounter with Mike Trout at last Wednesdays game. Will have to make a thread about it later.

I'm a big fan.

[Chi_archie]

I do think Harper has a break out year this or next

kid is still only 22 for the entire season!

[gauchojake]

Angels got a steal re-signing trout to the deal they did.

[Chi_archie]

Trout still head, shoulders, pecs above

[jjgold]

Trout much better but will never go down a winner

Harper plays with better hurlers so they always have a chance

[The Kraken]

Archie won this tread back in 2013, and he’s still winning it

[MMANick]

Lolllllllllll
