By the way, Deion was the GOAT corner and a very very average WR.. that's why he didn't play much. I saw him drop some wide open passes.

Ohtani is dominant at pitching and hitting.

Travis Hunter has a chance to be

GOAT level talent but baseball is about longevity and consistency. He has to keep this up for another 8 years I think to be in the conversation (decade in the MLB).

He's a wonder, but GOAT talk is mad premature.

The yearly earnings figures are legit. Thats all in contracts. They may be underselling it, tbh

Looks like not speaking English isn’t hurting his endorsement game at all. He’s making waaaaaaaay more in endorsement money than anybody else.

Mike trout only at $4M, creh has been playing himself and could be getting way more but I guess he really just likes being low key.

He made American league history Ohtani is making MLB history every time he steps on the field and performs well

You know what he not making? The playoffs

Amazing how the Angels had the top player from the 2010s & possibly the 2020s & probably won't even make the ALCS during that entire span.

It's so unprecedented, I honestly don't see how you compare him to anyone. What he's doing has never been done before, hell, no one else has ever even come CLOSE before.

How do you compare the impact of a single player doing 2 different players' jobs and both at an elite level to another player who is only doing one job? You can't. It's completely different.

Mike likes being the guy who makes a ton of money but he can lay low and nobody really knows who he is.

That being said Mike Trout may be setting himself up pretty nicely for his post-career.

Trout teams with Tiger to build golf course in N.J.

Los Angeles Angels star Mike Trout and 15-time major champion Tiger Woods are teaming up to build a new private golf club in southern New Jersey, the pair announced Monday.
