Is Trout really THAT good? #2 seems pretty high for a guy in low-A? What separates him from Ben Revere in 2008? Im sure theres something to be seen in person. Maybe the walks. The extra base hits are similar, trout does have advantage. Just would like to hear more about him. Does he project to have a lot of power?
