Mike Trout watch! The most overrated athlete to ever don a uniform is back at it

Here we go Trout. Doing what he does, STRIKEOUT. First week in the season, here are his stats. 3 hits, 5 k's. This dude is the laughing stock of baseball. Yet people think he's a Hall of famer. All he does is strike out, or hit a meaningless home run. He isn't a winner, he doesn't care about winning, he could have left the Angels years ago to play for contender. Last 5 seasons, 327 hits, 372k's. O championships, division titles, playoff wins, playoff appearances. And yes, it's his fault because he could leave the Angels anytime he wants to. He's not a winner, he don't want to win. I'll be updating his hit/k ratio throughout the season because it's hilarious. In 2 more seasons, he will have more k's than hits for his career. And people think this dude is great. I wonder why the Yankees, Dodgers, Cubs, Phillies hasn't ever offered this dude a contract? Think about it for a second? Why haven't they? I know why, LOL

Career stat ,1651 hits 1490 k's. And the gap is closing quickly. Also, at his pace, if he keeps playing, he will be the all-time strikeout king. And people actually think this dude is great. He's a joke!!! But seriously think about it? How come the Dodgers, Yankees, Phillies, Cubs throw money at him? It's simple. Because they don't want him. Because he's not a winner, he's content being in last place with the Angels every season. I wish Mike Trout lovers would argue with me. But they won't, because they can't because they are tired of his strikeouts  too. I'll post his K's all season long. Oh, did I mention he holds the Major League record for striking out 7 times in a row. Do you know how hard it is to strike out 7 times in a row. I mean, Devers in Boston couldn't even do that. He came close, but didn't k 7 in a row. Trout did! LOL

Three MVP Awards ,Rookie of the Year and Nine Silver Slugger Awards  career .299 BA    Injuries did him in   He has a solid body of work 

He was striking out before injuries. If he's injured, then why is he playing? He's healthy, he just strikes out all the time and his stats prove it. His career batting average is .299 right now. Dropping fast!!!! He has never been a winner, he doesn't care about winning, he could have left the Angels a long time ago. He's content being in last place every year. If he wanted to win, he would have left. Dude is a joke!

Frank Thomas 1397 career k's. Enough said! Need I say more!

@TxRangers

 Did he bend your sister over or what?

 or maybe you.

@TxRangers

 Why do you care? you’re making us rangers fans look bad by being such a little prick

@JuiceCanseco

You think I'm making the rangers fans look bad!!!!!?????? How???  So I point out the fact that Mike Trout has struck out 372 times with 327 hits in the past 5 seasons. And you think I'm making the Rangers fans look bad? Don't get mad at me because he strikes out. Don't get mad at me when he retires he will be the all-time strikeout leader. Don't get mad at me because the Angels are my last place every season. And actually, he's part of the problem. Do you realize how many times he has struck out to end the game, or in a key situation, to make the Angels lose? One example of many. A few years ago, who struck out in the WBC for the US team to end the game? Who made the final out to end the game and the tournament for the US team? I'll give you one guess? And I'll wait for your answer even though you won't answer me?

@bonfire69

 Nope, I'm bringing these facts up because everyone thinks trout is great?? And he actually sucks! You can have him on your team. All he will do is strike out in key situations, and hit a meaningless home run against Oakland in the middle of July. He doesn't care about winning, he could have left the Angels years ago to pursue a championship elsewhere like most players do. Nobody wants this dude. Ask the dodgers, cubs, yankees, Phillies. They never offered him contracts.

Let's see if anyone will answer my simple question? A few years ago who struck out in the WBC to end the game and end the tournament for the US team? And for the record, this same guy does this for his team numerous times  throughout the season and in his career. I'll give you one guess? I'll wait for your answer even though no one will answer me. Which will be hilarious!

Trout was never on the market to be offered contracts by other teams, Just tell us you do not understand baseball and save everyone the time here

@TxRangers

 Just playing with you.You have a lot of correct facts.Dont know why Angels kept investing in him being injury prone like he is.Seems like every year there is injuries.

See post #3

This is 100% spot on

@TxRangers

 Nolan Ryan is the all time walk king...should he be a HOFer?  Of course he should.  Mike Trout was on pace to be one of the best players of a generation before injuries derailed him.   

@TxRangers

 I can tell you that you've never played high-level baseball. Hitting is HARD, especially after the stress that has been put on his body. Also go refer to slide #3, I think overrated is a bit of an overstatement. Go rangers! 

@TxRangers

 None other than Ohtani. 

I was waiting for this thread when I saw Trout strike out a few days back. Hell yeah. Screw trout. My dead great pa can catch better rainbow trout than trout himself. 

@TxRangers

 Your facts about strike outs may be accurate, but you leave out a lot of facts that would go against your argument.  In addition to winning 3 MVPs, Trout was second in the voting 4 more times (2012, '13, '15 and '18)..... fourth in 2017....fifth in 2020.  That's 9 times either winning or finishing in the top 5 most valuable player in the entire American league. Just think about that.  Over seven years from from 2012-2019 he finished either first or second EVERY year except for 2017 when he finished 4th.  For you to claim that he "sucks" is a little disingenuous.  We get it.  You don't like him.  

@Jaybird1970

 I don't like him because people think he is great???!! And he's not great, he's good, not great. People say he's the best baseball player of this generation???? No he's not, not even close. He's a good player, not great, he doesn't care about winning, all he does is strike out, and his stats prove it. Once again, people think he's great, and he's not. That's my beef with Mike Trout. You can have him on your team, but I hope you enjoy being in last place. Because Trout could care less

Will you people stop saying career 299 batting average??? It was 307 a few years ago, it's dropping fast, and it will continue to drop. What's wrong with you people????? Yes, RIGHT NOW he has a career 298 actually batting average. When he retires, it will be around 280.

@buddygurt

 So, do you really think players have to be on the MARKET to receive contract offers?????? Do you actually believe that????? 

@Jaybird1970

 No one is saying Nolan Ryan is the greatest pitcher of all time?!!!!? This is my beef with trout. People believe he's the greatest of this generation and actually he's nowhere near the greatest in this generation.
