I think Pujols is still just trying to get used to the time change

More like NL to AL. A few hours you're used to in a few days.

when you are 42 years old it takes a lot longer to get in game shape

Looking like the worse free agent signing in sports history, right next to arod's current contract.

What's your definition of fine? Will he have his worse season of his first 10, or a least an average season by his his standards? Or will he get paid 25 million for a 18 homer run, .250 ba, and 75 RBI season that is average for the league as a whole.

LOL, never went back. I don't even think she works their if I would of gone back too. It was like sometime last year. But now that you brought it up, doesn't hurt to try again.

this will be the worst month of his 12+ year career. and thats over 70 months of baseball.

hes never not hit a homer in an entire month (including months where he had nagging injuries)

NYSportsGuy210 · 04-29-12, 12:13 PM

Relax....

.....guys like him when they get locked in can hit 7 HR's in a week. Watch him bust out with a 4-4....3 homerun 8 RBI game next week. Then all will be fine as he get on track.

TankHankerous · 04-29-12, 12:30 PM

Oh yeah? Look at the last 4 seasons and tell me when he got his first hr.

will2survive · 04-29-12, 01:01 PM

I think that his skills declined last year but there's no doubt that he's pressing. Remember when David Ortiz couldn't hit a home run after the steroid scandal? Once he hit one, he got his confidence back and the same thing goes for Pujols. He need's to get ahold of one and he'll get back on track.

I don't think it will be his worst season of his career, but it definitely won't be one of his best. Last year was his worst for BA and I don't think he can be expected to keep hitting .330 forever. He spent his whole career in STL, some people will take a little time to feel comfortable in their new home. I think it will still be a good year for him if he can hit around .300 & 100 RBI's. But it was a lot easier to rack up the RBI's with the Cards team.

It seems your more concerned that he is being over paid. That is most certainly true, but that is Angels management fault, not Pujols.
