Examining a hypothetical Braves trade for Mike Trout

Mike Trout might end up being the greatest baseball player to ever play the game.

Mike Trout has not won a playoff game since he joined the Angels in 2011.

Mike Trout is very likely not going to be traded this winter.

However...

Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic recently wrote about Trout’s future in Anaheim. He’s signed for just two more seasons (thru 2020), and the Angels are a mess in a highly-competitive division. There is little chance the Halos are better than the Astros in 2019 or 2020, and I’d probably take the A’s and Mariners’ chances over the Angels, too.
