White Sox: Comparing Frank Thomas’ first eight seasons to Mike Trout’s
When comparing a first ballot Hall of Famer for the White Sox and a future Hall of Famer that just signed a record-breaking contract, which player is better?
Earlier this week – as many fans know- Mike Trout signed a record 12 year, $430 million contract extension with the Los Angeles Angels. This makes Trout not only the largest paid athlete in baseball history but in all of the North American sports. While the Angels have only made the playoffs once since Trout’s debut in 2011, nobody is going to argue against Trout’s individual success.
