    Mike Trout is simply unreal.

    How in the hell he got a triple so easily off that was amazing. The future is now.

    hamilton not done yet jj, was a bad time for him to relapse during his contract year but he'll still get a 3 or 4 year deal from someone @ ~$23M/yr

    He will take a hometown discount. Too risky to go somewhere else and wouldnt hack it in a big market mentally/emotionally where they might have that kinda money

    he wants a huge long-term deal make no mistake. hearing rangers may be good for 4yr/$100M with all sorts of stipulations, incentives, & team option 4th year. will definitely be a very unique negotiation with at least 2 surprise high bidders. gl

    10-1-12:



    Trout is the first rookie to have five 4-hit games since Troy Tulowitzki in 2007. He scored his 129th run, third most by a rookie behind Joe DiMaggio (132) and Ted Williams (131).

    It's unfortunate he won't win MVP he had one hell of a year.
