You tell us: Who will have the better 2018 season, Mike Trout or Shohei Ohtani?

Shohei Ohtani has made his decision, reportedly choosing to sign with the Angels.

Which begs the question: Just which player will be better in 2018?
Sure, Trout can do just about everything. He can hit, he can run, he can throw and he can catch -- and he's done it all in MLB. But can he throw a 100-mph fastball that makes professional hitters look like Little Leaguers?
