This kid is amazing. I can't believe what he's doing right now. Taking all of baseball by storm! There's an awful lot of talent int he game today and it's not perfect, but the game is far cleaner than it was a decade ago. Young players like Trout and Harper who play old school hard nosed baseball are arriving and we could be talking about these guys in the same breath as some of best to ever play in another 10 years. I think this is a great time for baseball. There are older guys like Chipper Jones, Jeter, Mariano Rivera etc who are leaving the game soon but the talent is certainly coming back in to replenish itself. You also have the R.A. Dickey storyline this season and a ton of really good young pitching like King Felix, Kershaw, Hamels, Strasburg....the list goes on.
I hope people are enjoying the game today as much as me.
**I too had to pick up a bowman chrome signed RC of Trout, he really looks like a very special player!
