I don't know about a billion... LOL. But I read an article recently on mlb.com saying how Trout could eclipse Harper with a $350 million contract. Ugghhh.. Trout could feasibly DOUBLE what Harper got. I don't think it will happen because Trout will be like 29 years old when/if he hits free agency. So I would assume teams are going to learn from past signings of huge contracts for players near/over 30 years old, no matter who it is. I mean look how amazing Pujols was from 2001 - 2011 and look how that turned out. Look how amazing Cabrera was before signing his monster deal with Detroit and injury bug has hit him hard as well.
One thing is for sure though, Trout has been playing like a $40-$50 million/per year player thus far into his career, if you compare him to everyone else.
