50 homeruns this year

Stunned he didn't decide to give the White Sox a call.

It's great that all the recent speculation was how reluctant he was to go to Philly and how he was starting to consider short term offers and then... BOOM, 13 fucking years in Philly

MLB media got burnt badly at every turn during the Machado/Harper offseason

For his sake, I hope he plays well. He could be murdered if he doesn’t.

We sure this is the case with no opt outs?

Even earlier in the off season the reports were that he didn't want to live in Philly. Now, a third of a billion dollars could change anyone's mind about living anywhere, but thats just another way the media looked silly as well.

He'll be a DH in the last 6 years of the deal.

Now, Philly cant afford Trout, so he will most definitely sign with the Cubs.

Yep, Philly must know the DH is coming soon

Too bad Philly is an NL team.

Trout won’t leave the Angels.

Harper is "only" a $25 mil aav cap hit. They have the money to spend on Trout too, if they want.

Trout has two trouts named Clark and Addison.

The DH is coming.

Is this a joke or?

Not worried about that massive 8 year, $200 million, could jump to $300 million if Trout hits 80 HRs in the 9th year contract the Sox are gonna offer Trout to prove that Jerry is definitely not cheap?

There's talk about having the DH in both leagues.

this guy's WAR is incomparable to Trouts. and now that everyone just shifts the guy so he can't even hit a .250, I'm just flabbergasted.

Great signing. Will be a champion in Philly for manny years.
