Mike Trout To Braves Trade Rumors SHUT DOWN

Added: 2026-05-19

[00:00:00]I want to pick on one of my co-workers.

[00:00:01]>> Uh oh.

[00:00:02]>> And it comes from a place of love. When did Demino get into the click business?

[00:00:08]>> When did Demino who used to be as nuts and bolts, eggs and and potatoes and just the the meat and like he was that guy. Now he's getting clicks.

[00:00:16]>> Yep.

[00:00:17]>> He's gone on this diet tribe about Mike Trout to the Braves and it he went viral. It blowed up on the internet and I'm happy for him.

[00:00:25]But we all know, can we all have a serious conversation? Just adults.

[00:00:29]There's no way, no chance, no how the Braves are in the Mike Trout business ever. Is that a place we can start? And that might be Matt being reasonable or a poo pooer.

[00:00:39]>> Mike Trout makes $37 million a year for this year and three more years.

[00:00:44]>> How much will Ari Marino play?

[00:00:46]>> Pay what >> of that?

[00:00:48]>> Why would he pay any of it?

[00:00:49]>> Oh, I don't know. To not pay all of it.

[00:00:51]>> No, no, that's the Brave fan. This is the thing I just said with the Hawks.

[00:00:53]This is Deino and Braves fans going, "If you if you're willing to pick up 15 a year of it, why would he?" The Angels do stink.

[00:00:59]>> Fine. Arty Moreno held on to Showi. Why?

[00:01:02]>> That was a mistake.

[00:01:03]>> That's not what I asked you. That's an opinion. Why did he hold on to Shi?

[00:01:07]>> Uh because Perry Managian told him that it was a good idea to hang on to him and >> Well, no, not at all. Art's like >> it was business. I know.

[00:01:13]>> Yes. Fill the seats. Yeah. Mike Trout's the only thing left before everything else is just gone. I don't think he has any intent to trade Mike Trout. That's my opinion. But even if he did, Mike is having a nice year this year.

[00:01:24]>> Really great bounceback, actually. But I would ask everybody, do you trust a soon to be 36y old 37 and 38 for three years of healthy baseball at $37 million a year? I'll wait for your answer. The answer is no. Then you say this, "Well, Matt, well, what if Arty eats 15 million a year?" Um, okay. Are you willing to give up a bunch of extra prospects at that point? Really good ones. Cuz if if he's eating the money, the return the angels are going to be like, "All right, we're eating a ton of cash. We want your top two, three prospects or we want two prospects and a third one in the top 10 because we're eating all this money.

[00:01:57]This isn't just they give us trout to get rid of them. They eat the money and we give them a double A short stop. None of this is realistic. It's not happening. I need to be a pooer.

[00:02:06]>> It was two summers ago that they didn't trade show. Basically, they turned Otani into like the 47th pick in the draft.

[00:02:15]They got a compensatory pick. So, this is the get-Right scenario for for for Anaheim. It's the get-Right scenario of all right, we screwed up the show thing.

[00:02:23]Let's turn Trout into our future.

[00:02:25]>> But you can't turn him into a future because if you're picking up all the money, I'm not giving you anything. If anybody's willing to pick up Trouts three years and this year at 140 million still left, you're giving them buckets to take them off their hands. One of two things you have to come to realization here is the Angels are dumping the money and you're taking the money and in return you don't have to give them much because you're taking the money or they're going to eat a good bit and you're going to give them more than you want to for a guy who's going to break down at 36 37 and 38. The the history is there. Here is Mike Trout since 2020.

[00:02:56]>> Oh, it's been rough.

[00:02:57]>> 53 games one year, 36 games one year, 82 games, 29 games. Remember what Charles Barkley just said the other day to Draymond Green? You don't get healthier as you get older. He's healthy today.

[00:03:09]Anybody want to take a wager if he's healthy in July or August? Cuz I'll take it with you. History says no. It's silliness.

[00:03:15]>> Okay. For me to site games played as a positive in a player's career earlier, that's a little dicey because obviously they're older and they picked up injuries. To site games missed, that actually does uh have value. But I'm going to tell you that Trout the the 53 games in 2020 doesn't count. That was a co thing. Um he played 119. He played 130. Now, that was at age 30 and age 33 last season. He's now 34. Obviously, we be 35 going in next year. Um, he's having a hell of a season and you're a lot lot better if you get Mike Trout on this team. I don't know about the realistic nature of this. Maybe there's a radio show in Anaheim right now talking about uh they acquire Aaron Judge. You can talk about anything you want to on the radio.

[00:03:58]>> You can do it. It's fun. It's not real.

[00:04:00]First of all, the Braves The Braves >> Mike Trout playing for somebody else isn't real. I think it >> for somebody else maybe not here because I gave you two scenarios and nobody can argue with me on if you're taking his money then you don't have to give everything up but the Braves aren't going to take the money they don't pay >> but you do get the player too.

[00:04:15]>> Did you just move here?

[00:04:17]>> Who makes 37 million on the Braves?

[00:04:18]>> Nobody.

[00:04:19]>> And why would you pay a 35-year-old 37?

[00:04:21]You probably would.

[00:04:22]>> Okay, so there's step one. Move that to the side. Throw that one out. All right, >> we're gonna throw that one out.

[00:04:27]>> Somehow Alex convinces Perry Manazian and Arty to eat 15 millionaire because we like that number 22 million. But then return he says, "We want Owen Murphy and two other big prospects because we're doing y'all a solid by eating all this money." Are you doing that? Because I'm not. For a GUY WHO'S GONNA BREAK DOWN, THIS ISN'T HARD TO SEE.

[00:04:43]>> He most likely will break down. You're right.

[00:04:45]>> This is like trading for Porzingis. And I won't pick on you, but I will cuz you're dumb. You were like, "Porzing 65 games."

[00:04:50]>> I really wanted 65 games out of >> What showed you that he was going to play 65. So what do you believe?

[00:04:54]>> Cuz I'm a sports fan. I'm allowed to be excited about things that are fanciful.

[00:04:58]>> But you also But thank God you're not in a position of power to make the deal.

[00:05:00]No, I'm not the GM. That's why he's supposed to be right. A train is supposed to be right. I'm supposed to have an opinion.

[00:05:06]>> It's why Demino can, you know, give up, you know, being realistic for clicks and you can just hope for things. I'm over here having leans on things.

[00:05:12]>> And this guy has a good lean on things.

[00:05:13]>> I'm over here telling you what I know.

[00:05:15]And you guys are doing the click game.

[00:05:16]>> That's why your face goes viral. I guess they do it >> because I had an early I was Was I in on the Who had the Lafleur thing first?

[00:05:22]>> Had the Lafllor news early.

[00:05:23]>> I had that early. I've had a lot of those things and all of a sudden then it happens. Who had the Duban thing first?

[00:05:28]Hey, when we see your face going viral on the internet, we know you're right.

[00:05:31]>> Jayen Brown, >> right? Who who's on that early, but Deino, >> you're still with Boston.

[00:05:35]>> Demino is trying to get in on my game and because he's doing it for clicks and that's fine. Demino, if you're about to click game, there's no realistic path to Mike Trout ever being in Atlanta Brave.

[00:05:44]>> They put up another Nick and Chris video with Shahadi.

[00:05:47]>> Lauren Shiad, >> it's doing [clears throat] numbers.

[00:05:50]>> Of course it is. Listen, I'll have Lauren Shahad in with us. It'll do numbers. I'm not in the battle for numbers. That Lauren Shahi drinking a diet coke is going to do numbers.

[00:05:58]>> You know what we do? We come in here every day. We're just doing it. We just do it. They don't They're not just doing it. We're doing it every day.

[00:06:04]>> I mean, these guys, >> they do it.

[00:06:06]>> They do it.

[00:06:06]>> That we do it.

[00:06:07]>> Lauren eating pizza rolls.

[00:06:09]>> But but Nick and Chris are now planting Lauren Shiadi in studio and Demino giving to Mike Track cuz he wants to get the clicks. I don't know what happened to this. Deino would have been the last one ever to get the clicks or care about it.

[00:06:20]>> Trout will play for someone else >> maybe. So the first part of it, the first but they got stung on maybe most likely.

[00:06:27]>> Maybe you don't have a good lean on things.

[00:06:29]>> You never had a great lean. What' you have early? What' you ever have early? I had the floor news early.

[00:06:34]>> I had the floor news thing actually.

[00:06:37]>> But you didn't have it that you actually had that.

[00:06:39]>> You didn't claim it. So it doesn't matter now. Nobody knows it existed. You had Alberto Mendoza coming to tech. You you missed >> your window.

[00:06:46]>> But it happened.

[00:06:47]>> I did have We don't know you had it.

[00:06:48]>> No. I told Brooks Austin I was like, "Hey, you might want to look. It could be out there.

[00:06:52]>> The least. Put your chest out when you have a lean. I mean, you might want to look and you might see like put your chest out.

[00:06:58]>> That's not a lean. That's like whatever's a step back from that's a hedge. That's you. Do I shoot the three or do I take an 18footer?

[00:07:04]>> Might try to play for somebody else.

[00:07:05]Probably >> maybe. Probably. [laughter] >> Put that on the internet and let them come after me. Not scared of those
