  1. Lmao the part where Alex Morgan took the golf swing and shook the booty, the boys just being boys kinda laughing 😂 that aint too bad 😂

  2. Mookie has to learn how to let your guest talk, especially for a guy like Trout that rarely ever does stuff like this.

  3. This is the first time me seeing trout in a long form relaxed personal environment like this. It actually breaks my heart that he hasn’t seen as much playoff ball as he deserves to this point of his career. He deserves that opportunity now. It’s criminal for the game of baseball

  4. Mookie is asking Trout about how Shohei as a teammate because he knows Shohei will be Dodger next season

  5. never seen mookie content until friend sent me this. what a cool dude. this interview was so cool. thanks

  6. Watching this after the regular season has ended is a little heartbreaking, when he goes into how great their team was that season. Not soon after this was shot, injuries ended up just absolutely decimating everyone and they had a totally heartbreaking August.

  7. Shohei and Mike are seriously GOATs, not only on a professions level but they are incredible human beings too so nice and humble.
    Also it’s amazing to see here 2 of Shohei’s teammates – before Angels(Trout)and now Dodgers(Mookie).

  8. Yes 700M was smart, had Ohtani made 5 or 600M it would've still been impressive but topping the highest paid athletes made news world wide and that kind of publicity you can't buy unless you make it news.

  9. Mike trout if you’re reading this please leave the angels… you already tried and couldn’t win with that organization… how many more years are you going to waste your career until you realize you won’t win a chip with the angels.. please demand a trade and go to any team LITERALLY ANY OTHER TEAM, please for the love of god, DEMAND A TRADE and go to a team that will give you an actual chance of getting a World Series ring. I’m just saying playing on any other team except the angels would be life changing for you. Do you really want to be apart of a rebuilding team at this age? Think for yourself, your age, your family, and if you have true fans they will follow you anywhere. PLEASE DEMAND A TRADE!

  10. Dodger fan here. Watching this the first time after all the fiasco since last weekend on the sweepstakes for the unicorn. Trout expected him to garner between 400-500M. I can't see Trout being upset at Ohtani for leaving. But I feel for him with the way the Angels ownership has not done enough to make the team better.

  11. Would love trout to join dodgers with Betts and freeman and othani man that will be a sick killer hitter lineup in history angels don’t deserve trout he deserve to win a World Series before he hangs it up
