Dave Cameron (of all people) actually makes a very good point about the logical inconsistency of voters who don't put Trout 1st on their ballot. The only argument for Betts (who probably wins) over Trout is that Trout's wins don't matter. But in that case, it doesn't makes sense to give Trout a 2nd place vote, because Donaldson, Altuve, Machado, Lindor, Beltre etc... all contributed wins that 'matter more than Trout's'. Either Trout's wins have value, and you vote him #1, or they don't, and you leave him off your ballot. Anything else means you're not thinking very deeply about what you're doing.
