He's on a team full of MLB All-Stars. He's not looking to overperform. He has faith in his teammates to step up.Trout also gets to bend the ear of one of the greatest hitters ever to play the game, Ken Griffey Jr. Griffey is Team USA's hitting coach. Surely, Trout has picked up a trick or two from Griffey.&quot;That's what playing for a pathetic loser franchise like the Angels will do to legends.

They want to see Mike Trout and Shohei Ohtani play meaningful games in October.YVR BlueJays Fan@set921@TalkinBaseball_ Naturally. I'll still never understand why he inked that lifer deal with an owner who doesn't want to win. And what was ohtani thinking by signing with them when he could have gone to a winning organization.4@TalkinBaseball_ Naturally.

He could have chosen to go to a contender but instead re-signed with the Angels for 12 years, $426.5 million.The baseball world needs Mike Trout in the postseasonLos Angeles Angels star Mike TroutIt's a shame that one of the best baseball players in the world has only been to the postseason once in his career. They ended up losing to the Kansas City Royals in the ALDS 3-0.Mike Trout and the Angels face more pressure to be competitive this season. Shohei Ohtani is on a one-year contract. It's been rumored that he could be looking at leaving at the end of the season if things don't turn around in Los Angeles.Losing Ohtani would be tough. He's a big reason as to why fans showed up to the stadium in the first place. Every single team will be on him in free agency if he chooses to go that route.Hopefully, the team can put it together this year not just for their sake but for the sake of all baseball fans.
