HBT: Mike Trout still a Phillies fan

Commence your six-year premature free agency speculation, Philly Pholks. Mike Trout grew up in Phillies country and, according to his dad in this CSNPhilly.com interview, Trout still roots for them:

Trout?s father recalled a story from a few years back when in the middle of the night, Jeff heard Mike scream from his room.

?Dad,?we?got Roy Halladay!? Mike yelled. To which his Dad responded: ?the Angels got Halladay??

?No, the Phillies did!? Mike replied. ?Son, you?re a member of the Angels. What?s with this?we?!?

That was in December 2009, six months after Trout was drafted by the Angels and had already played in Rookie and Low-A ball for the club.

Still, it was almost three years ago. We should test this to see if he?s still Phaithful. Quick: someone tell him that Ryan Howard?s contract sucks and see if he gets all whiny about it.
