Mike Trout

Los Angeles Angels – Outfielder

This was probably the easiest choice to make. Not just because there is nothing that is slowing this man down, but because he is kind of the runaway favorite right now.

His slash line is currently at .312/.492/.602, which puts him in the top three in the league in OPS.

Add to it seven homeruns and 20 RBI and once again Trout is off to another solid campaign.

Honestly will this guy ever slow down?

The unfortunate deterrent for Trout is that often times the team is taken into consideration. Once again, the Angels are under-performing with this generations best player.

Currently at 15-17 in the AL West, Trout will need some help from his teammates to get them over that playoff drought hump, but don’t let that takeaway from the impeccable performances Trout has been putting forth year after year after year.
