Roy Campanella
Stan Musial
Joe DiMaggio
Jimmie Foxx
and of course, Mike Trout. Pretty hefty list and if he wins a fourth MVP, which I really don't think is far from the realm of possibility, he is again in a class of his own.

Yes hes an ELITE Regular Season player at this point.....i dont doubt he would be great in playoffs as well but if he doest get the chance, you cant put him over others who proved to be great against far better playoff competition.
of course a terrible regular season player who was great int he playoffs wouldnt make that player better than trout....however there could be other 3x MVP or lesser that is considered better due to the entire body of work including playoffs.
