Possible Mike Trout?

First time writing in this board. This guy has an autographed ball that he bought at a flea market and doesn't know who it is. It is very close to a Mile Trout in certain ways. If you look at an old signature, he signs his T like a 7. I put a Bowman card pic in this post to compare an older signature. I'm not saying this is a real or fake. It may be another ball player. Just curious as to what the forum thinks. Thank you.

The M doesn't look right to me. His autograph has changed a lot over just the last 3 or 4 years. But the M has been somewhat consistent. I'm not saying that it couldn't be a very rushed signature from 2010 or 2011. But it doesn't seem right to me.

Here is a more recent in person my son had signed in Anaheim last year.

It may not be. I was looking over the signature and was just curious. Especially since it favored an older signature of his. Thanks

don't look like any trout i've ever seen... in fact it looks more like some was starting to forge michael jordan, and once they messed up after the "23" (halfway into the 3) they just gave up!

Doesn't look like any I have seen either. I've seen a bunch of his signed stuff every year since the Angels started bringing him to spring training and none have looked like that.
