yep. I think every 5-10 years we see these players with historical comps like Bryce Harper, Acuna, Trout, Spencer Strider, Gerrit Cole, Verlander, Scherzer, Kershaw etc.

These guys are all Hall of Fame level talent and will be measured against Ted Williams, Willie Mays, Babe Ruth, Koufax, Nolan Ryan, Hank Aaron etc.

Josh's flame burned out too quickly, which is sad for fans and his family. I really enjoyed my time with him.

Trout was easily the most polished player I have ever seen- his approach was so dialed and so consistent it was hilarious. He absolutely had the best approach to his hitting that I'd ever seen...the only other player I played with who was so disciplined and inspired so much confidence he'd 'show up nightly' was Michael Young.

Playing with Mike Young was amazing. We literally thought he would get 2 hits every night. I think if he would have been able to play a few more years he would have gotten 3000 hits. He was that good.
