Introduction編集


Trout is an eleven-time MLB All-Star, three-time American League (AL) Most Valuable Player (MVP) (winning the award in 2014, 2016, and 2019, while finishing second in the 2012, 2013, 2015, and 2018 votes), and is a nine-time winner of the Silver Slugger Award. He also captained the United States national team during the 2023 World Baseball Classic.


The Angels selected Trout in the first round of the 2009 MLB draft. He made a brief major league appearance in 2011 before becoming a regular player for the Angels the subsequent season, and won the 2012 AL Rookie of the Year Award unanimously. Trout's athleticism on the field has received praise from both the mainstream media and sabermetricians. He is often regarded as one of the greatest players of all time. Trout led the American League in wins above replacement (WAR) in each of his first five full seasons, and is the active leader in the stat with 85 WAR.


Trout has led the American League in runs (2012–14, 2016) and times on base (2013, 2015–16, 2018) four times. As of March 2023, he leads all active major league players in career slugging percentage (.587), on-base percentage (.415), on-base plus slugging (1.002), and is third in stolen base percentage (84.65%). In 2019, he signed a 12-year, $426 million contract with the Angels, the second-richest contract in the history of North American sports and fourth in professional sports in general (and the second-biggest contract at the time of signing).
