It is early, yeah, but let's look where Mike Trout already is in the Angels record books...

123 Games - Already passed Dallas McPherson's 117 games.

516 Plate Appearances - Already passed Brandon Wood's 494 PA.

103 Runs Scored - Ahead of Jose Molina's 95 runs (over seven seasons!)

144 Hits is one hit ahead of teammate Vernon Wells... in 49 fewer games played in an Angels uniform!!!

27 Doubles is three ahead of Hideki Matsui's mark of 24, and Trout has 42 fewer PA in red than Godzilla did!

23 Homeruns is already five ahead of Rod Carew's mark... and Rod had 3,000+ more ABs wearing a Halo.

37 Stolen Bases is ahead of Wally Joyner's 29. Brian Downing and Bobby Grich had 27 as Angels. These are players with 3,774 PA, 6,912 PA and 4,876 PA as Angels respectively.

.313 Batting Average is third in franchise history for any player with more than 500 Plate Appearances, second only to Vladimir Guerrero and Carew. Will Mike reach π tonight?

His .376 On Base Percentage only places him seventh in franchise history for players with more than 500 PA. Boo Hoo, oh well there is something to work on there, Mike.
