How gifted he (Trout) is, he's so gifted, man. You can see it in many ways. It sucks he keeps getting hurt. When he's on, this guy can do everything well. It's a second Mookie I'm watching. It's very similar. These two guys are very gifted. Like I said, you call those generational talents.
Prior to the start of this season, Betts spoke about Trout's ability when healthy and the impact he can have on a game. He believed that Trout could accomplish great things in 2025, health permitting.
