Mike Trout is just the latest to show his disdain for Astrs players in the wake of the sign-stealing controversy as well as the many people who are upset with MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred’s decision to not punish Astros players.
“I don’t agree with the punishments, with the players not getting anything. It was a player-driven thing,” Trout told reporters Monday. “It sucks because a guy’s career’s been affected and a lot of people lost jobs. It was tough.
“Me going up to the plate and knowing what’s coming would be pretty fun up there. A lot of guys lost respect for some of the [Astros players]. It seems like every day something new comes out.”
Trout added, “You can take my shirt off…if you hit a homer to send your team to the World Series at home, you can do whatever you want to me.”
In the midst of speaking about the Astros — Trout also addressed the many rumors of him using HGH.
“I didn’t worry about it because it’s not true,” Trout told reporters.
