I saw this reported earlier and it makes Trout's accomplishments all the more remarkable - coming off of his third straight MVP-caliber season, he is more than three years younger than the rookie of the year award winners in both leagues this year.* There seems to be almost no ceiling on what his career can be - I just hope he's able to continue to play at or near this level for a long time.
*ETA: Of the top 10 in each league's rookie of the year balloting (as reported by Baseball Reference), only one person - Nick Castellanos from Detroit, who received a single down-ballot vote - is younger than Trout.
