He looks like the winner ! Might as well buy all his chrome autos .
You essentially have an extra season added in his totals. That is why there are 523 more at AB in Braun's stats.

Trout only played 40 games that first season so he wasn't eligible for any batting titles (not to mention he was 19). How about we compare Braun's 19-24 year old seasons? After all "it's not anyone's fault how many more plate appearances they got"(in this case Braun only got 1155 in that span).

I seem to have hijacked this with the Pujols v Trout thing, my original intent was just to point out to Neal that buying mass produced modern cards may not be the best way to go for long term value and was using Pujols, who was as hot a card as anyone, as an example of that.

There was no stipulations? Really how about the stipulation that they played 6 seasons? Trout hasn't played 6 seasons. That was what my point was. You used an arbitrary stipulation that Trout didn't qualify for.

Ok years as in the original post then your taking it way to literal. There have been plenty of people with horrible last years but they still count as playing in that year. This first year is the same and any in the middle. I didn't start that stipulation that was what the topic was so I really don't see where your going with that.
