Mike Trout splashed huge sums of money from the contract which he received to acquire this beautiful property
In the modern era of baseball, the name of Mike Trout has reached far new heights. The Los Angeles Angels star is considered by many as one of the all-time greats and a future Hall of Famer. A player of his caliber is what every team hopes for. To keep Trout at the Angels was going to cost them a lot. The US international signed a 12-year contract extension, worth $427 million in 2019.
As a result of such a big-money contract, Trout has offered himself some luxuries. One would say he deserves that for single-handedly carrying the Angels franchise. Ever since making his debut for them, the team has struggled throughout and is yet to experience playoff baseball with their superstar. Despite his team’s failure, Trout has risen to the challenge and kept doing what he does best.
In the year 2017, Trout married his lifelong girlfriend Jessica Cox, and since then, he has given 𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡 to a son in 2020. He is one of the most lovable players among the fans and has gained a few nicknames throughout his career. Some even described him as “God’s Gift” for his natural playing abilities on the field of baseball.

Mike Trout was 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 in 1991 to Jeff and Debbie Trout in Millville, New Jersey. He grew up with two older siblings, Teal and Jeff. His father, Jeff, played baseball for the University of Delaware and was a fifth-round pick by the Minnesota Twins.
This could explain why Mike followed in his dad’s footsteps. Trout started to show promising signs at an early age. While attending Millville Senior High School, Trout played both basketball and baseball.
He would often wear the number 2 jersey on his back to honor his 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥hood hero, Derek Jeter. Trout originally started as a pitcher and shortstop but soon moved to the outfield. He was signed as the 25th overall draft pick in the 2009 MLB draft, and he has not looked back since then.
