He's managed to do this when Troy Tulowitzki is hitting .355/.447/.662 and also playing great defense.

 

Edit: The **** happened to Trout's dWAR? It was around 7.0 a couple days ago and now it's dropped down to 4.0

As of this moment he also has the highest OPS in the AL, 2nd in baseball.

 

He is not a mortal.

[bloodbrother]

He strikes out too much

[fan_since79]

He's been a beast for the past month.

[tdawg87]

There it is!

[wopphil]

We are watching our generation's Ruth/Williams/Mays, playing for our favorite team. It's unreal.

[NrM]

Just imagine if he had a feared hitter behind him in the lineup.

 

Or at least a guy who isn't a prima donna bitch who complains about guys running while he bats.

 

Dude could have 30 steals right now.

[Taylor]

who complains about guys running while he bats.

 

Link?

It's awesome. 

The Angels could go 0-162 and I would still tune in every single game to watch Trout.

When you consider his may, thats very impressive.

He actually had a .851 OPS in May and ended it with a 11 game hitting streak. Still was striking out more than he normally does though.

He only really slumped for like 2 1/2 weeks.

 

An .851 OPS is basically an allstar season for most players.

just a few weeks ago, there were doubters

 

I don't think there were any doubters, just some people concerned about his high k rate.

[seenoevil]

Just a matter of time

[rageous]

Meanwhile baseball-reference has Trout still behind Donaldson who barely has ops above .800.

Their system is broken.

[Docwaukee]

Trout and Ibanez have a combined WAR over 4. 

 

It's impressive that those two could combine for 4 wins. 

[Hollyw00d]

everyone else was just throwing pebbles at the throne in may.  trout's still wearing the crown

Trout and Ibanez have a combined WAR over 4. 

 

 

Efren Navarro and Grant Green definitely couldn't do that

Like clockwork

[AngelsFaninGA]

Clockwork would make a pretty solid #3 hitter.

Yea that shit seems whack. 

They had Carlos Gomez tied with trout in bWAR last year.

^^ THIS ^^

[notherhalo]

also leading the league in slugging

[stormngt]

When has Pujols complained about Trout running?

Or at least a guy who isn't a prima donna bitch who complains about guys running while he bats.

Dude could have 30 steals right now.

[NachoPop]

He got ot his slump out of the way for the year. Now he'll tear it up for the remainder

He's got a ways to go to catch those guys.
