yea trout has hit the level where he has to be so far better than everyone else in a current year to get an MVP anymore. He should probably have 3 already and was only out of the race last year bc he was hurt. Sorry I know this is a Mookie fest but if you dont think Trout is exciting to watch maybe you should watch more Angels games, the guy is amazing.
Mookie, however, is on a HoF path himself and I would love for him to be on it for the entirety of his career, in a Red Sox uniform. I understand we aren't going to sign every one of these guys, but Betts is head and shoulders above the rest. Really excited to see what Devers and Benintendi can do, but I imagine Benintendi is a player that will play out his contract here and go elsewhere, considering the skillset he has demonstrated so far has not proven to be all that unique. I would hate to see Mookie Betts in another uniform. If we can waste 40 mil a year on Hanley Ramirez and Pablo Sandoval, we should be able to spend 30+ mil on this guy when he hits FA. Let him be the face of the franchise through 2030.
