That would put him in the top 20 HS sprinters in the country this year if it was not a hand time.

Maybe Castro should go to the batting cages with Bernsy. Bernsy will show him how to square up 95 MPH fastballs in no time!

Two different ages, different camera angles, distance from camera, lighting etc.

If the bottom picture is someones idea of a "ROID FREAK", then that person has the wrong idea and is a complete idiot.

For such a "smart" guy, BernSTINE knows little about the subject of PED's. Maybe he should study up.

Palmero tested positive for Winstrol, that would hardly give him let alone anyone the "Juiced" look, especially at his age.

Whether or not Trout is on PED's is a question that no-one that isn't Mike Trout can answer. But accusing him of being a "Roid Freak" and using that picture as proof, is your evidence, well.....that isn't very convincing. His neck is big, great, but his arms in that picture aren't very big, so is he using neck steroids only?

At this point I would say a professional sports, top tier, money no object training regime, trainer and that fact that he's really young etc would have more to do with the supposed supernatural leap than simply pumping large amounts of test, deca, winny or whatever. He's young and talented, that seems hard for some people to swallow....if you weeeeeel.

What explains the difference between the draft day picture and the major league picture?

There really isn't one.

Your post is a shining example of someone totally missing the point.

Also, I don't see his neck "ripping through the collar of his shirt."

His neck and shoulders are pretty prominent in the suit picture as well. Just not as obvious....because its a suit

Nobody said he wasn't juicing in HS. Must be pretty widespread given the looks of the youngsters nowadays.

Very good point.

So did Lil Danny say anything more about this today or did he back off? I can see someone like Kevin Goldstein or Jim Callis sending him a text or something saying: hey dumbass I watched Trout in high school and he was really fuckin fast.

I don't think so.

And if Kevin Goldstein says something, the opposite is probably true.

Goldstein seems to be more of a writer than a scout but I'll give him the benefit of the doubt that he knows how to work a stopwatch. Someone needs to send him a tweet saying: Lil Danny Bernstien thinks Mike Trout is on steroids because he wasn't fast in high school. Thoughts?

He wasnt in the Mitchell Report. He must be clean.

He's a big fucker. His stats in the minors are nowhere near what he's doing now. Did Victor Conte move to Anaheim??

He was in the minors for 2 years and put up a .342/.425/.516/.941 line.

and was hitting 403 when they called him up this year with a 1+ OPS
