    Hes Albert Fukkin Pujols he has to break out of this at some point right??... All the signs that say El hombre all over so cal didnt help the pressure hes under hes pressing he'll break out of it. I hope he does anyway to be honest im more concerned with Ervin Santana he could have been pedro martinez now hes looking like he wont even be ramon martinez kid gets bombed every time out facing that indians lineup doesnt count fukkin AAA lineup . All that Halo hype down the drain So cal residents dont buy tickets to see losers so they better fix it asap.

    Albert Pujols is 1-3 with 1 Hit vs Brandon Morrow.

    This thread will be up until Pujols unties his HR record with me. What team will be the lucky one?

    The better question is whether Soriano or Pujols homers first.

    Soriano will go first for sure. But Soriano is not the so called "hitting machine".

    But isn't different with position players?

    No status on Pujols record vs Henderson Alvarez.
    Lets see if he can make up today for going 0-3 yesterday.

    Brock, how many bases did Crawford steal so far?

    The the Angels Angels of Anaheim are funny. They had Mike Napoli, a very good hitter, for five years, but Mike Scioscia refused to play him regularly. After 2010, they trade him for basically nothing and then realize "Hey, we don't have any serious threats in the lineup!"

    So they go out and bring in one of the worst contracts in baseball (Vernon Wells), and when that doesn't work out, they try again with another bad contract (Albert Pujols).

    They could've kept Napoli for less than a quarter of what either Pujols or Wells are making.

    The reasoning for not playing Napoli was "he doesn't field well enough." Two problems: A)They could've DHed him. B)This season they're often playing Mark Trumbo at third, and he can't play the position.

    So now they're paying Vernon Wells $21 million for an OPS+ below 100 (77 to be exact meaning he's well below league average), and they gave Pujols a 10 year contract worth $240 million to be one of the worst players in the entire league.


    A month into the season, he has a .245 OBP, zero home runs, and an OPS+ of 51 (!!!!!).

    His OPS of .524 ranks 5th to last in the entire American League, ahead of only Brent Morel, Alexei Ramirez, Casey Kotchman, and teammate Erick Aybar.

    I'm shocked about Pujols. Figured he could struggle a little early, but no HR's is incomprehensible. He's never had a month like that. Crazy.

    After going 0-4 last night, today Mr.Pujols has a batting average of .333 vs Kyle Drabek. Maybe this is a good sign for Pujols to go yard after watching Jose Bautista run around the bases for a 2run shot. Pimpin ain't easy.

    Albert Pujols was not in the line-up for Saturday's game. Not this already....

    IF Pujols is in the line-up, he has never faced Drew Hutchinson. Lets see how this goes for Sunday.

    You think Buddy Black and the Front Office will sign me? I mean, we're paying Bartlett and the O-Dawg lots of money and yet still can't bring in fans to the park.
