Very false. Same amount of stolen bases. Altuve has 5 less homeruns. Trout should be leading this significantly given the fact hes a power hitter. Trout only has 4 rbi's more. Altuve blows him away in Avg. There definitely is an arguement.

By far the two most important things for a hitter to do are: get on base and hit for power. Trout was significantly better at both last year.

As for baserunning, stolen bases isn't it the only part of it. Trout made less outs on the bases last year and was more successful at taking the extra base on base hits.

Basically if you look at any stats created after the 1880s, Trout was clearly better.
