There are more Chrome Pujols Auto's on ebay currently that are overpriced and are just going to sit there. There are Trout Chromes that are going to be bought up every day and the overpriced Pujols will still be sitting on ebay. More demand than supply for Trout will equal higher prices. Pujols STILL has 7 years on his contract that he will never fullfill. As great as he was and and scarce as that card still is- demand for Trout will be their for the next TEN years at least. How many will be tucked away in PC's? How many will be available in the secondary market? You want to talk about slumps and injuries? What IF Pujols was found out that he lied about his age, then PED's were in his history and Trout is the healthy CLEAN one? Yes anything can happen.....
That all may be true and yet that has no impact on Trout's prices.
The current situation is that Pujols has already put up numbers that make him one of the ten best hitters in baseball history while Trout has played two seasons in the Majors. They have been historically look but baseball history it littered with players who were great from the onset and faded. Not saying it will happen but to compare Trout to Pujols now is silly.
