There’s no question that Mike Trout is the greatest player in baseball today. In addition, he’s also the highest paid, having signed a contract that season worth more than $400 million. His contract isn’t the only thing that’s valuable about Trout.
An autographed Trout rookie card sold for $922,500. It was sold at Goldin Auctions in Runnemede, New Jersey. This made it the highest price ever gotten for a modern-day baseball card, according to Action Network’s Darren Rovell.
Here’s a photo of the card.
