No, Trout doesn't seem like a diva to me. Back in the day, KGJ was said to be all smiles and what was good about baseball but when he was with the Reds and they wanted him to move to Right Field because he sucked as a Center Fielder, he at first refused and when he finally did move he had an attitude about it. Acted like a total diva.

Trout is not a DIVA in my experience. He has called ushers away to sign for my son. He has smiled, waved and been super nice to me, my wife and my son and daughter the 3-4 times that we have been close enough to interact with him. Pujols on the other hand has been all DIVA.

Good for him but 249k per game or around 55k per AB sounds a bit excessive don't you think. 55k per at bat holy sh77.

Check your math!

If Ocasio Cortez becomes president, Trout’s after tax salary will work out to about $15/hr.

The main reason I like it is because it's great to see a player play his entire career with one team. That's getting rarer all the time.

I agree 100%! Its sad the Angels havent been able to put a winner on the field. I hope their farm system pans out and helps Trout get to the playoffs a couple more times at least.

But he will still be ahead of Harper at $12.

No, everyone will be making $15/hour.

Sorry I was slightly off but not by much:


430 mill/12yrs = 35.8mil/yr avg

$35,800,000/152 gms/yr (his avg games the last 7 years) = $235,000 per game!!

$35,800,000/648 (his avg plate appearances the last 7 years) = $55,246 per at bat.
