Which player would you rather have on your team?

Harper (23 years old)

2014: .273 AVG, .344 OBP, .423 SLG, 13 HR, 32 RBI, 100 G, 1.4 WAR
2015: .330 AVG, .460 OBP, .649 SLG, 42 HR, 118 RBI, 153 G, 9.5 WAR

Trout (24 years old)

2014: .287 AVG, .377 OBP, .561 SLG, 36 HR, 111 RBI, 157 G, 8.0 WAR
2015: .299 AVG, .402 OBP, .590 SLG, 41 HR, 90 RBI, 159 G, 9.0 WAR

Would anyone rather have Harper over Trout, or would you take the more consistent Trout over Harper? I think it's pretty close, and I also believe Harper's breakout year last year is legit.

I'll take Trout, but only because he hasn't been injured as much. Harper has just as much potential, but gets hurt running into walls and things.

Trout spent too much time with Jared Fogle for my liking

Trout

He has performed at this level for 4 years now. His defense is a bit better, and he can use his speed as a weapon

Trout.

Better defensively, pretty much the same offensively. Plus Harper is a douche.

Love both players but I'm taking Harper. I think Harper plays a lot harder and is way more entertaining to watch. Cowherd summed it up perfect on his show last week. Few would know Trout if he were standing in line at the supermarket but Harper is a polarizing guy. I respect Trout's clean-cut image but I'll take the entertainment value in Harper getting choked by a teammate on the dugout steps any day.
