If we go up to age 23, Trout is 4th (or tied for 5th, Musial also gets 169). Williams has 190, Pete Browning has 188 and Cobb has 171. But Browning still only had 1137 PAs.
I estimate that even if Trout has an OPS+ of just 60 the rest of this season, he would still be at 149 or in the top 10. If he can do 158 the rest of the way, he will still be at 167 (he is at 183 so far this year). So he would still be in 2nd place. This is extremely outstanding company that he is in.
For wRC+ that is listed at Fangraphs, he still does very well on the list up through age 22.Fangraphs has Jackson being born in 1889 while Baseball Reference has 1887

Where does Kaline rank?
36th. But he started at 18 and did not start doing well until 20. There is another list after this first one that has it for ages 20-22. Kaline is 19th on that one
