He's been worth the money so far, but let's acknowledge that the risk factor is crazy.
Mike Trout had a foot problem that shelved him for the last part of the 2019 season.
If that foot becomes a chronic issue, even Trout will be underwater. (Sorry.)
We were very fortunate in 2013. A lot of things had to go right and they did. Like Lackey, for example.
But that team isn't really a blueprint for success. Especially when you look at what happened the next year.
