Mike Trout

Who is the next BIG superstar in baseball? That would be the Angel's 22 year-old Mike Trout.

Over the last two seasons he's been on base more than anyone:

Mike Trout: 564
Miguel Cabrera: 562
Shin-Soo Choo: 556
Prince Fielder: 542
Andrew McCutchen: 541
Joey Votto: 541

and these are his other stats

Runs: First (238)
Extra-base hits: Sixth (140)
Stolen bases: Second (82)

IF he continues those types of numbers for a couple of more years, he could sign baseball's first $400 million contract about the time he hits 25.

And most GMs think that would be a good deal. Long-term, really big money deals, are going to become rarer in baseball than they have been, but some players may still be worth it.

And this is the guy everybody's pointing to.
