Happy Birthday Mike Trout!

The best Mike Trout picture I've ever taken. Last year in Seattle, at Safeco Field (Thowbacks Jerseys day). 

 

I made it my avatar. Thanks for the great pic Chuck.

With the HR, Trout's OPS is above 1.000 for the first time this season.

 

On his birthday.

Trout is such a badass.

With the HR, Trout's OPS is above 1.000 for the first time this season.

 

On his birthday.

And it was his 20th HR/70th RBI.

Just give him at 15/250 contract and make sure he never wears another uniform. We could quite literally be watching the best player ever to play the game of baseball.

His numbers since May 1st are actually better than Cabrera's, except for the HR's and RBI.

Offer him 12/250 this offseason. On pace for another 10 WAR season.

 

Absolutely absurd for a 22 year old kid.

His numbers since May 1st are actually better than Cabrera's, except for the HR's and RBI.

Cabrera actually has people gettign on base in front of him (for him to drive in) and behind him (as protection / motivation for opposing teams to actually pitch to him).

 

To be honest with Hamilton and Trumbo behind him I'm surprised Trout isn't walked more often.
