Until I saw what he can do for the team.
Against Matt Cain on Monday, Trout hit a single, stole 2nd, got to 3rd by tagging on a sacrifice fly and scored on another sacrifice fly.
That is 1 run scored with no help of another hit. |

| Mike Trout really should be credited with helping to lift the Angels from their slow start. The Angels were 6-14 when they decided to call him up and have only lost 18 games since then and are 29-18 with him. He has been an outstanding player in CF and should be a strong canidate for AL Rookie of The Year. Without him the Angels could very well of been far back in the AL West race right now. |

| I believe he might be a dark horse for even the AL MVP. |

Harper might not be helping the Nats as much as Trout is helping the Angels, but that may be because the Nats are a lot better off than the Angels, or it's just that Harper isn't up to par with Trout.
Either way, Harper has his good moments and his bad moments. When they're good, they're really good, and when they're bad, they're really bad.

| He very well could be. Josh Hamilton is slowing down from his hot start and you could veryl well see a race between Hamilton, Dunn, and Trout for AL MVP at the end of the season. While Trout isn't a HR threat (he has 6 HRs, just if you are curious_ he is great at getting on base with a .397 OBP (higher than Hamilton and Dunn) and has a .337 BA (higher than Hamilton and Dunn). |

The last rookie to win the MVP was Ichiro, and he isn't anything close to a power hitter. He hits lead off, steals, and hits for a really high average. Making everyone else around him look better.
Witch is basically what Trout is doing. |

He's still playing. Not in the news anymore that much.

| Trout hasn't shown a whole lot of power yet. Just 7 have left the park. but most expect him to show power in probobly 2 years. so far, besides the power, he has been a 5 tool player. It privilage watch him. I'm really glad i have MLB.TV. Did anyone see his catch yesurday. He robbed a homer. but when most rob a homer, its just there glove that is over the wall. half his freaking body WAS OVER THE WALL. That is unbeleivable. |
