Trout's 30-30 watch

[disarcina]

I still say MVP TROUT

[Richard]

They took him out after that rbi.

Going to finish 29 100 30 

 

 

[disarcina]

got the RBI !!!   29/30 - 100 RBI and how many hits? 180 ??

MVP !!!!

 

[disarcina]

future trivia question -- Mike Trout stole 30 bases in his 2016 MVP year with 29 HR and 100 RBI.

He was replaced by a pinch runner one time during that season........

who pinch ran for the AL MVP???

 

a catcher, JETT BANDY -- they'll never get that one !!!

F'n Scioscia...just dumb

[Guest]

This is going to bug me as much as Salmon's 299 HRs. Damn it. 

[Stradling]

Mike had been at 28 homers with a few weeks to go.  

[fan_since79]

Scioscia just loves to troll the fans, and that was a good one.

 

[Sully151]

Let's hope Trout doesn't remember or care about this when its time to talk contract extensions or free agency. 

 

Of of course the Angels might low ball their offer because he only hit 29 homeruns that one year.

[Blarg]

Trout was all smiles when he came off the field,  high fiving all his coaches and team mates.

Scioscia understood correctly that this overworked 25-year old needs his rest.

Exactly...can't risk injury in the last AB of the season 

[fan_since79]

That's why he's a Hall of Fame manager. He sees things that nobody else does.

 

[tdawg87]

Season over.

[Amazing Larry]

Mercifully. 

[tdawg87]

He should have hit number 30 about 10 games ago. This was a down month for him power wise.

[Angelsjunky]

Don't worry, folks, there will be many more Trout bombs.

Time to sign a 2B & LF this off season 

[gurn67]

The question is kind of moot now that Trout missed by 1 home run, but I was wondering if anybody other than Bonds had 100 runs, 30 doubles, 30 hrs, 100 rbis, 100 bb & 30 sb in one season. Bonds did it one time in Pittsburg pre-juice and several times in San Fran after he started juicing in 2000.

Trout wouldn't have come up to bat again if he had stayed in the game

Arod maybe?

[disarcina]

am sure Mays had 100 RBI 30 HR and perhaps 30 SB season.

Griffey Jr. too.

don't think Hank Aaron would have had the SBs.

[Angelsjunky]

Bonds didn't steal many bases when he was juiced up.

[gurn67]

Arod didn't walk enough. The only year he walked 100 times, he only stole 15 bases. Same with Mays. He only walked 100 times once and it was late in his career when he only hit 18 HR. Griffey never stole more than 24 bases although he obviously had the ability to early in his career. Maybe Seattle was trying to avoid injury. Aaron had one 30 SB season, but had 29 doubles and 78 walks.

I didn't go back any farther, but last guy to do it was Bobby Abreu in 2004. He actually did it twice.

You're right. Bonds did it three times. All before he started juicing.
