One year Miggy won the Triple Crown,The next year his stats were actually better including hitting close to .350...Plus the Tigers made the World Series in 2012 and made the ALCS in 2013

As good as Trout played,The Angels didn't make the playoffs either year...

Mike Trout is the best all-around player in baseball...All around means playing great defense and stealing bases as well as hitting,but Miggy was hitting at a higher level,especially in 2013

Then again,I'm a A's fan so...:yeshrug:

Kershaw's dominance though :handrub:


The only deciding factor is that Trout is an every day player.
Kershaw and Trout are the only players where if you wanted to trade for them, you'd have to clean your farm system, and the answer would still be a "no".

When did Trout win a triple crown...

And for those who are saying Trout is the best player in baseball...why?

MIggy has out hit him every year...Trout obviously smokes him in stolen bases...defense...eh...I'd need proof that Trout is actually saving runs out there...i need some sort of tangible proof where guys won't go from 1st to 2nd or 2nd to 3rd because of Trout's arm...otherwise...not really going to put to much stock in it...He's no Cespedes where players rarely ever try to go from 2nd to 3rd or 3rd home on him...

Trout is another one of the guys that no one can ever explain to me why he is considered the best player in baseball...

Because he hit's for average...Miggy hits for a higher average year in and year out

Because he hit's for power...Miggy hits for more homeruns year in and year out

Because he drives in runs...Miggy drives in more

Because he scores runs...20 more than Miggy last year...which is pretty small seeing as how Trout is supposed to be great on the base path's and MIggy is probably bottom 10 slowest player in the league...

Because he steals bases...no argument their Trout wins easily...

Defense...like I said I'm not buying Trout as anything more than slightly above average...and Miggy has been so good at the plate the last 3 years that it more than makes up for his bad defense at 3rd...and really it wasn't even THAT bad...

:what::what:

Now Cabrera is overrated...

:snoop:
Yes, terrible base runner and terrible defensive player. He the type of player not to score on a long single when on 2nd base with two outs. Or go from 1st to home in a long ass double. Hell, the fatty can't even get to 2nd base on what is supposed to be a clear double in a lot of occasions. Basically, yeah, he a great hitter, but he gonna cost you runs with his terrible defense and base running. And for that, you cant be MVP.

He costs his team runs as well with his shytty base running and defense, dumbfukk. What part of that don't you understand? Unlike Trout, Miggy is not a complete player.
