Poll: Which team signs Trout

[millertime98]

I'm entering year 4 of my Orioles Franchise Rebuild. It's the off season heading into 2021. 30 team control and I let Trout walk into Free Agency. We all know the big boys will come calling but I think it would be fun to have a surprising team sign the best player in the game....

I really can't answer this objectively without knowing what's happened in the 4 years of your franchise and where teams are at now, so I'm just going to be biased and say the Blue Jays.

Re: Poll: Which team signs Trout

How do you have this poll and not have Philly on the list?

He is going to Philly, you can bet money on it.

This is about his franchise in the video game, not about real life.

In my franchise Baltimore retained the services of Machado and - wait for it - Tampa signed Harper.

Re: Poll: Which team signs Trout

In my Franchise the BIG deal was Trout. He stayed with the Angels for 10 years 300+ millions. Harper went to Seattle for 8 years 250+ million. Machado went to Texas for 9 years 225+ million.

Let's see.... DET has Gio Gonzalez, Khris Davis and a lot of young talent, including Mize who was brought up this season.

Miami is still Miami thought some of their young guys are making their debut.

Toronto has Vlad Jr and Bichette as regulars and All Stars. They have a little young pitching and Grichuk and Devon Travis.

The Padres have a ton of talent and have been in the hunt for the division but haven't gotten over the hump.

The Orioles (my team) is in full rebuild mode. 62, 48 and 53 wins so far. We have back to back #1 picks. We have several young and talented pitchers and players but only one has made it to the big leagues just yet. We are entering year 4 of what will be a 5-6 year rebuild. However, when we are good, we will be really good...I hope. A player like Trout would help put us over the top.

I fully envision all of the big boys coming after Trout, including the Angels. This was just a way for me to see who the community thought would be a fun surprise team. Going into the off season nobody thought the Padres would land Machado. Yet, here we are.
All in good fun, y'all.

I would point out that the Padres have a recent history of making big splashes in the off season. Machado was not the start of it.

I'd say the Padres based on what you've told me.

I think Machado was the first potential HOF they got. Preller-Palooza was a wild off season but either way I don't want the best player in the game to be just a cog in the wheel of the Yankees or Red Sox (who are still negotiating with Betts but he is a FA). I'd like him to transform some team's franchise. I'll probably pick this back up tomorrow and make a decision. It pains me that it is legit (even if slightly so) that he could sign with Baltimore (my team). I really want to do my franchise with players I drafted or traded for when they were young. Sorry, Mr. Trout, maybe next time.

Re: Poll: Which team signs Trout

I picked Detroit because I'm a Tigers fan but there's no way in H*ll that Chris Ilitch is opening the pocketbook for Trout. He's too cheap.

ETA: Oh, I didn't see this was just for the OP's Franchise. Well, I stand my by comment. Video game Chris Ilitch is cheap too.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say he stays with the Angel's for 12 years 400+ million.......

Interested to see this play out in the show if it is even possible to give a player 430 m
