What happened to not negotiating during spring training and him saying that was a very bad sign......

We may not have a reliable starting pitcher for all year, but man I'm happy!! This is the best news we could have gotten!!

[summit21]

12/430 according to ESPN. Very good news! 

[krAbs]

So, about 35 million a year until he is 40, right? Assuming this kicks in after the previous deal concluded.

This extension will be the largest contract in sports history - by about 75 million dollars. 

Mike Trout will make juuuust under 588 million dollars for playing baseball.

[Biergott]

Yes, 12/430. The guys on WFAN reported the wrong total, but who cares. That's a lot of money!!!

F/U Philadelphia

[Keener]

Tremendous news!!!

I think this is a bargain. I didn’t think the Angels could have signed him to an extension for less than 40 mil. per. 

[19HALO71]

Any details?

This is awesome news!!

Go Halos!!!

[Erstad Grit]

Any news on opt outs?

[NJHalo]

Smart move by Mike. The market was not going to get any higher, so he only stood to lose value, and risk injury. 

If he wasn't signing now, he wasn't signing.
