If Giancarlo Stanton is worth $325 million, then by that market value, Trout is easily over half a billion. Good lord, those are crazy numbers

One of the first times I watched Trout play he legged out an infield hit, and I immediately thought, “Mickey Mantle before he blew his knee out”. Not that I saw Mantle in his prime- the Mantle I watched play moved like a guy with two sore knees. But up until that moment I hadn’t realized Trout was so fast, and…

Jeez, he passed 50 WAR this year? I think that’s about the level a guy turns into a fringe HoF candidate.

Mike Trout has never finished worse than second in the AL MVP race and this will (probably) be the first year he should finish worse than first.

WOW SUPER INTERESTING!

In his 7th season, he is already the Angels’ all-time leader in career WAR, almost 10 clear of second-place Jim Fregosi(!) who played 12 seasons, and 13 clear of third-place Tim Salmon, who played all 14 of his seasons with the Angels.

Holy shit, when did SB Nation commenters get here?

“See you in the playoffs”

They should just release a highlight reel of Brock standing and singing along to the National Anthem and watch the trade offers come flying in.

Wrong. It’s Spanish :)

“I think that you really need the picture to go along with that quote. But, it’s still gold!”

You’re right. Some of them were just really tolerant of racism, as long as it wasn’t against them.

“The great fish...” “Mammal.” “Whatever!”

the sea was angry that day, my friends

Even Schindler’s List 2: Electric Boogaloo?

“‘Anything’ 2, Electric Boogaloo” always gets a star from me. Anything.

If you loved Buttfumble, get ready for this season’s sequel - Buttfumble II - Electric Boogaloo.

Before this season, his career ERA was 4.76 and he had only pitched a total of 251 2/3 innings. You can certainly say that Verlander, who’s been one of the best pitchers in baseball for the last decade plus, is a better bet in a game 7.
