Mike Trout got 6/144.5 three years ago. That seems like it's around where Bryant should land.

That contract is actually, crazily enough, regarded as a bargain for the Angels and well below market value for Trout and Boras wouldn't dream of allowing Bryant to sell himself short like that.
I will vow, for the sake of peace, not to complain about David Ross between now and his first start next year- 10/26/2015

Yeah, that was also pretty much a record contract and it wasn't even close.  Trout was also a guy coming off 2 10-win seasons.

Maybe it is a good place for Bryant to land, after this year.

Kris Bryant with a left pinkie strain. X-rays negative. Day to day.

Whew. Now never do that again, Kris. Never get hurt. Live forever.

Kris passes 6 fWAR for the 3rd straight year to begin his career. I'm pretty sure he's 6th or 7th all time in WAR through the first three years of a career but I'm not a B-Ref subscriber so I'm not sure I ran the play index correctly and I cant' tell you the names of who is ahead of him. Anywho, this kid is pretty much already an all-time great and we haven't bumped this thread in two months because we fucking suck and are not worthy of him.

Some people fan by ranting at Jason Heyward, others fan by caping up for Milton Bradley. We're all human, I guess.

That was years ago. I think liberal Yeti has established himself as someone who wouldn't defend MB like Conservative Yeti did

Intrepid Reader: Milton Bradley

Conservative Yeti was Woke and Liberal Yeti was racist?

QuoteBradley, who was traded to the Mariners for Carlos Silva and cash on Dec. 18, was asked if Chicago is a tough place to play for African-Americans.

"Well, I mean unless you go out there and you're Superman -- you're Andre Dawson, you're Ernie Banks, you're in the Hall of Fame -- then it's going to be tough," Bradley said. "People are just the way they are.

"When you get paid a lot of money to play this game, they expect miracles. And when you don't go out there and perform like that, then people don't like it. People don't want to see a guy that's brash and cocky and a little arrogant and kind of does his own thing making a lot of money. They were like, 'He doesn't deserve that.'"

Bradley was asked if race played a role.

"I got the same mail LaTroy [Hawkins] probably got; the same mail Jacque [Jones] got," Bradley said. "Every time I got mail, I handed it to the PR guy and said, 'Here it goes.'

"I was getting so much until I didn't even have to open up the letter to know what it was, I could see from the envelope. I could just tell, you get an envelope, no address on it, no postmark, it's just in your mail. How does that get in your cubby hole? I don't know how that happens."

I don't know how to do "first 3 years of career" on Fangraphs, but if you go by age 23-25 seasons, he's 21st all time.
