Give me $500,000 a year. I be his personal chauffeur. Anytime of the the day. I'll be on call. Hell I'll even wear that stupid hat.
 
he costs less than $1M. he's basically free. i'll take 3 games if i can :lol

i would think we don't plan on playing him 6 nights a week
 
Trout is an idiot. Should have played out his contract and got that 10/300 contract in the next couple years.
 
A 28 year old Trout is not gonna get that 10 year 300 mill though. Its crazy how Arod was able to swindle his way into two different 250+mill contracts in his career :{

Who's Trout 's agent? It seemed like Trout just wanted to get a deal done and out of the way to avoid distraction, I respect the kid for that.

Can't stand the Angels but Trout is amazing.
 
Trout and the Angels were extremely smart doing this. Good for him/them :hat

A 28 year old Trout even if he's 75% the player he is now will command huge money/years on the open market, you guys are insane if you think not.

If his career keeps going the way it has been he'll easily get a 10 year deal when its done, age doesn't matter what it comes to these things. He'll be in his prime.

A Rod was going to hit over 800 home runs, and be the person to do that *without* using banned substances.

Yankees would have made a billion off him alone easily.
 
How many years did Trout have left? 2 or 3? I would have waited and got that HUGE payday. I think he'll get paid after this contract but not as much. People will see the Pujols, Cano and Miguel deal end in disaster. Detroit already saw what a mistake Prince Fielder's deal was.
 
Trout plays like a crazy person. His career could be over tomorrow. I'm fine with the risk-prevention kind of contract for now.

If he makes it, he is still getting another nine figures again when this one is up.
