He has talked about playing for the Phillies at some point in his career because it was the local team, the team he grew up rooting for. Maybe he will stay with the Angels, but Trout still follows the Philly sport teams because he grew up rooting for them. The discussion of Trout and the Phillies are not just in a vacuum; he has discussed it in the past.

I realize everyone is different, but do you think Lebron James would have ever went back to Cleveland to win a championship if he was not a local kid?

Bryce Harper has said that he discussed Philadelphia extensively with Trout. Do you think Harper would have signed there if Trout dumped on playing there?
