Mike Trout's Talent is Wasted in the two-hole..

I'm going to have to agree with Lifetime. Trout is a beast of a specimen. The reason he's not stealing as much is (allegedly) because Pujols is being a ninny and doesn't want him dancing around on the base-paths. He'll still steal 30 easily, I imagine, maybe 40 - but dreams of 60+ aren't going to be fulfilled.

That's a double chin.  For a professional athlete, who relies on speed, this is fat and irresponsible.  His play has slipped, it's not ridiculous to discuss whether or not him being a fatty fat fat is a factor.

Then why has it seemed he's not getting to balls in the OF that he got to last year.

Because there are not being hit to the same place?

Batting Hamilton second isn't the best of ideas. I'd be more in favor of moving him down a notch or two until he starts hitting like he's capable of doing.
