Anyone see Mike Trout allow an inside the park HR today?

Carrbeaz · 03-05-2019, 03:24 PM

Completely misplayed the ball then kicks the ball when chasing after it. Pretty funny stuff.

sell!

Price Drop!! Lol

Joking aside... Maybe it's just Spring training and he isn't taking it seriously since he know he is 10000% chance of making the team

Joking aside, 10000% doesn't exist...even to overachievers.

The joyless scorer ruled it a double and a 2-base error.

Looked like the right call.

Instead of calling it a double and 2-base error, we need a rule change to officially deem it a 'Little League home run'

The beginning of the end.

An infielder has to chuck it into the outfield for those. Maybe even twice!

cnewby · 03-05-2019, 03:52 PM

I thought he was statistically an average-at-best OF anyways.

LVDan · 03-05-2019, 04:18 PM

He musta been embarrassed I guess.

Put up a field goal in the 3rd. He may stick around after all.

Well, he has a .9937 fielding percentage in his time in the majors. Right now that puts him ties for 13 with Aaron Hicks of all time out fielders.

People above him that’s still playing?
Jon Jay
Jacoby Ellsbury
Michael Brantley
AJ Polluck
Billy Hamilton

So being tied for 13 with I say at least 10 more years playing isn’t too shabby. It is at least well above average.

hofcollector2 · 03-05-2019, 07:27 PM

He's gonna have a down year.

Mr Wells · 03-05-2019, 07:31 PM

Finally. I've been waiting for prices to drop under $700 on his PSA 10s '11 Update.

IronMonkey415 · 03-05-2019, 07:35 PM

I'm still looking for a video of this funny incident.

If you happen to find it please share it.

Get some better shades before the regular season Mikey!

TimBuckTwo · 03-05-2019, 09:52 PM

He didn't misplayed the ball, he was running around looking for the same money Harper, Machado and Arenado got paid.

Cavaliercards · 03-05-2019, 09:54 PM

$500 million players dont do that

imbluestreak23 · 03-05-2019, 10:04 PM

I would sell

Probably too fat

Fielding percentage means almost nothing to determine how good a fielder a player is. Advanced statistics say that Trout is average to a below average fielder with a very weak arm.

Yes. For instance Fangraphs suggests Mookie Betts has nearly 3X the fielding value of Mike Trout.

2018 statistics for CF (Trout): https://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.as...ter=&players=0

2018 statistics for RF (Betts): https://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.as...ter=&players=0

Trout has been between -4.5 and +6 most seasons. So somewhere about average.

Betts has been consistently +11 to +14 post 2nd season, normally leading his position.
