I don't miss his defense in the outfield...  His offense has also dipped this season after getting that guaranteed money.

I don't understand why teams insist on playing him out there.

Same. Hes a 1B, more likely a DH. I get teams want his power bat, and a lot of teams already have a DH so you try and work him in. But..

I think hed be fine if you stuck hin a 1B. Outfield just isnt him (or for most tall 1B types).

I imagine bouncing from LF to RF doesnt help.

Because they have three DH's basically (Mancini, Davis, Trumbo)

I thought Davis was actually good with the glove at first

I'll see your Trumbo defensive lowlight and raise you this gem.

Oh come on, he doesn't have 605 home runs, never will.

A guy in his prime has more homeruns over a 6 year period than a guy on the downside of his career?

[tdawg87]

Trumbo only has 166 homeruns since 2012. So a guy in his prime years only has 6 more homeruns than a gimpy, broken Pujols. Lol Trumbo.

[Angel Oracle]

Give Trumbo credit, at least he caught the ball on the 3rd try.

Since we traded Trumbo, his best season is 1.6 WAR in the last 4.5 years.  CJ Cron was worth 2.1 WAR last year.  

Trumbo is the Juliette Lewis of baseball.  Somewhat talented at times but pretty hard to watch and not likely to make the short stick long.

Has Trumbo gotten his OBP above .290 yet?

Definitely one of my favorites Angel Trumbo moments.  

I'm a fan of the guy, but holy shit he can't field.

Little leaguers don't misplay balls as bad as he did

Trumbo is at .311 and Albert is at .291.

Must be Mike's fault.
