You trade your 24-year old superstar who might end up one of the greatest of all time, it's like saying to your fans: 'We suck. And we don't think much of you either.'

I'm very skeptical the Angels would trade Trout.

 

As am I...just trying to imagine what some team would have to give up to make it worth their while is pretty mind-boggling (but a fun exercise nonetheless).

When I think about what a team would have to give up to get Trout I realize that any trade like that would have the potential to have the fans of both teams unhappy!

True.

The Marlins were genius in this move. Barring an unforeseen consequence, he is opting out. And because of this, they get him for 6yrs and $107 mil. On the open market, he is worth $30 mil a season right now. After 2020, he will be worth more provided good health. If he isn't, he stays put. If he continues to abuse pitching and hit 35+ HR a year with a high OBP, then he should be worth more than $218 mil over 7 yrs.

 

Let me enjoy my dream of Loria being left holding the bag for a little longer.
