    Mike trout is the only player worth the big contract signed in the off-season. Guy is incredible every season. He is the babe ruth of our current baseball era.

        5-1 fading Ruth. Basically only momentum I've had last 2 weeks.

          Every shift has said this over and over again in this thread. You guys need to coordinate.

                    You completely flipped the thread title though...Agreed fading the Angels is $ for the most part. But the thread title is completely ludicrous....Lol

                      Mickey Mantle??? Lol. Mantle got injured, ripping his knee in drainage area due to Joe D. and not wanting to relinquish leadership of the Yankees. Mantle was a beast. Tell Trout to win some World Series titles first! He re-signs with a shit team. Trout signing with the Halos is an embarrassment. At least Harper is looking for a damn Championship.

                        Mike Trout is the best position player since Barry Bonds.

Trout gets significantly more from a team that has NOTHING around him and it's "Good for Mike." That team has no depth and no other stars and they spend that kind of money when they still got Pujols on the books for 2 more years? Can't imagine why they have missed the post season 8 of the last 9 seasons.

                              If Trout was on a contender and he had 2-3 rings he'd be in the conervsation as an all-time great, instead he's on a shit team with no farm system and grossly overpaid players like Pujols so people think he's overrated, its not him its the shit team around him. Pitcher are hurt every year.

                                      Today is Mike Trout’s 29th birthday.

                                      He has produced so much WAR since his debut in 2011 that he’s the WAR leader since 2004.

                                      Mike Trout turned 13 in 2004

                                                weird that people apply NBA ring logic to MLB now

                                                I guess Ty Cobb, Ted Williams, Griffey jr, Tony Gwynn, Yaz, Barry Bonds, Ryne Sandberg, Robin Yount, Rod Carew, Ernie Banks, Ichiro weren't any good


                                                a position player can only do so much

                                                  His Angels never had a pitching staff worth shit.
                                                  Pitching almost always wins, that's not an opinion, that's proven.
                                                  Don't blame Trout for management not addressing the poor pitching, year in, year out.

                                                    Exactly. Coward didn’t want to go to a big market and have to compete in meaningful games. He was content getting paid to beat up on the Rangers and As and have October off every year. One time guy went to the post season he was 1-12. A few years ago he had the 2nd worst leverage index in the entire league. Guy has no clutch genes. He also has utilized Pee’s no doubt in my mind. Nobody cares though cuz he always has that little f*g smirk on his face and acts like a good boy. Dudes a queer.

My god lets see judge sign there in fa wedge trout between ohtani and judge and see what hes really made of. Remarkable numbers for no protection. Overrated seems to equate to no championships based on multiple replies in this thread. So james harden is the overrated king. How many cracks at a championship but no rings. How many teams has he ruined. How many choke jobs. Its bad.

The Angels Demise all these years are on there crap Owner. Artie Moreno stinks. He has never cared about winning. He signs a few big name players to get butts in the seats,They have had a few problems as well tragic when that young kid died coming home from a game Nick Adenhart i think his name was.
