I think his biggest problem is that while he is is consistently in the top 2-3 players in baseball every year, his improvements are incremental. He has lowered his K rate this year marginally. His SLG is at a career high. But, Bellinger and Yellich are new shiny objects. When you enter Trout's orbit you are the talk of the town. He's just Trout.
If Trout can straighten out that BABIP, maybe he'll get his OBP up to 500 and start getting some press.
