Imagine the contract that Mike Trout will be getting when he gets extended or imagine him hitting free agency.
ESPN's Buster Olney poised the question to several manager who indicated that a $400 MM contract may not be out of order.

ESPN's Buster Olney poised the question to several manager who indicated that a $400 MM contract may not be out of order.
Quote:I asked a long-time agent who does not represent Trout what he might ask for in a negotiation for a multiyear deal, and he paused for a few moments, like someone savoring a good piece of steak.
"Why not do something that's never been done before?" he asked rhetorically.
What do you mean?
"Twelve years, $400 million."
