Mike Trout remains a symbol of what could have been—a Ferrari confined to a school zone, a talent that never truly reached its full potential. As his career progresses, the question lingers: Will Trout retire as one of baseball's greatest yet most tragic figures?

Trout's professional journey started with a bang, showcasing his prowess in the Arizona League and swiftly moving up the ranks. By 2011, he made his MLB debut, and by 2012, he was already an AL MVP contender. His 2014 season was a standout, with 36 home runs and 111 RBIs, finally earning him the MVP title.

However, despite Trout's consistent excellence, the Angels have struggled to build a winning team around him. The franchise's mismanagement and poor team-building decisions have led to a single playoff appearance in 2014, where they were quickly eliminated. This lack of postseason success has overshadowed Trout's incredible achievements, making his career a tale of unfulfilled potential.
