In March 2019, Trout had then signed the largest contract in professional sports history, worth $426.5 million, which was broken by Patrick Mahomes' contract extension by the Chiefs. Nonetheless, the 29-year-old's deal makes it the 2nd richest contract in the history of North American sports and 3rd in professional sports in general and includes a $20 million signing bonus. Trout was due to be a free agent following the 2020 season, but the Angels paid heavily to keep the star outfielder in the mix. The contract sees him earn nearly $36 million a year, topping Zack Greinke's previous record average of $34.4 million with the Arizona Diamondbacks.
