Stop hating on the Young Phenoms, let them get their shine on :smugdraper:
plus, this is what baseball should do, they need to promote their stars, specifically their "Lebron" type prospects

I'm not hating on the players, I'm hating on this crazy hype and forced praise. That's what makes people hate certain athletes for no reason. Berman was busting nuts over Trumbo's HRs last night...Prince had like the five longest HRs the whole night and Berman didn't say a peep. Trout's a stud, no homo, but dude hit a knuckleball that hung there and stole a base against a knucklebaler and I really need to hear that fakkit McCarver ask what can't this kid do?:beli: Don't insult my intelligence. Have you seen Bryce Harper's stats? The fukk is this nikka doing in this game in the first place. There's a ton of legit stars in this league, let these guys show and prove instead of hyping them beyond belief now and clowning them if they don't pan out.

Did you see Trout's stats? Talk about stealing a base against a knuckleballer, but he's the first person ALL YEAR to do it. And he's leading the AL in hitting. Kid is in his first full year and batting .341 at the break, as well as leading the AL in stolen bases.

Harper is a different story, but Trout deserves to be there. His offense + defense makes him an AMAZING talent.
