He's definitely a good player, just nothing extra special in my eyes. Of course 90% of the baseball I watch is Post Season, pretty much never miss a game, that's why I never see him play.

Definitely a me first player. He likes his money, nothing wrong with that.

He will never win a World Series. Prima Donna.

You don't want him on your team.

But I understand you New Jersey boys & East Coasters need a
Great White Hope.

And time has proven, he ain't it.

The playoff figure was, actually, in 91, if you read it.

Great white hope? I see we’ve chosen to go the batshit nuts route instead of any honest analysis. As always.

I'm wondering who is a special player in your mind if not Trout or Harper.

Sticking with just hitters off the top of my head from about 2000 on I'll go
Barry Bonds, Albert Pujols, Miguel Cabrera, Vlad Guerrero, Manny Ramirez, Ichiro and probably Aaron Judge over your 2.

I might be missing a few too, can't think of everyone.

That's an interesting list. Barry has no championships. Aaron Judge has no championships. Ichiro has no championships. Miguel Cabrera hasn't appeared in the postseason since 2014.

....and you can add Altuve to players I'd rather have then Trout.



....and probably Arod & Jeter too.

Altuve and trash cans you mean...

Arod and medical assistance.

They also dont play the same position.....pretty sure if Jeter on the Angels with no Trout they are no better..
