No he's not - I would put Max Scherer above him

Yelich is the best player in baseball presently. Look at his numbers last season - imagine if he didn’t get hurt prior to the season finishing out. Trout is one of the best of all time, however Yelich is pound for pound the better hitter IMO if we were to start the season tomorrow.

With Soto - the way he can see pitches and make adjustments while in the box shows maturity beyond his years. If he stays the course, he will be the best player to ever wear a Nationals/Senators/Expos uniform. I live in Texas and have watched Trout for years now - when you do 15 fantasy baseball leagues each year, you take in a lot of games on a day to day basis. Trout was phenomenal at 20 - however I would personally take Soto - and he has the ring to prove that he can carry a team when it matters most.
