I guarantee you the numbers for his first five or six seasons will be ahead of Trout in nearly every important category. E.g. he had 250 HR after 6 seasons and was batting .330 or so.

Pujols was a monster. Just doesn't have the appeal Trout does .... in my opinion of course

I completely agree with this at this time. The problem is as soon as Trout has a bad year or the next big thing comes up Trout will be forgotten just as fast as Pujols was. Probably even faster since Pujols had a much better start to his career.

Anyone still playing could get injured or traded. Injuries will hurt his prices, and being traded or signed will probably hurt his prices unless he goes to the Yankees or Cubs. Pujols was amazing on the Cardinals, but his cards started dropping when the Cardinals collectors felt abandoned by him signing with the Angels. Modern collecting is risky, especially when Topps keeps pumping out Trout and Bryant autos in each new release.
