Exactly.We can talk all day about if Pujols juiced in the past.But Roids dont work where you take them and just start mashing bombs for 10 days straight on whim.But hey, if Albert is able to juice undetected and see immediate results, I guess everyone should try and emmulate his strategy.
For those with credible interest in the topic, Pujols mashed lefties with L.A. last year as well.1) There is a DH now in the National League. 2) He plays vs lefties mostly, as opposed to being over played vs righties in the firsr half. He plays when a lefty starts. He pinch hits when a lefty is in the game. It would need to be a unique situation for him to hit righties. He was pinched hit for with a lefty hitter vs a righty just a few games ago.3) He only became/accepted being a part time player, and, specialist vs lefties the past couple of seasons. Positive environments in L.A. and Stl as well.
There’s little doubt the Cardinals have an elaborate sign stealing scheme that involves technology which we know is a no-no but that’s what franchises with no qualms about cheating and cheaters do. Half the fan base is under indictment for their roles in January 6th and the other half are under investigation for meth dealing
Brother Rico:Obviously your post shows you are coming to grips with the fact the Cubs won't win again for 102 years. Ad hominin fallacies are what frustrated Cub fans resort to when they realize that, once again, their team sucks.Enjoy your bad baseball in a good park!
Well the Cubs won today. Yadiots are left wondering if the Mendoza Line is in their near future after another 0fer ?#Cooperstown
Molina must have compromising info on the front office for them to keep letting his carcass play
He'll be leaving town for 5 days to watch his new bocce team in action.
Greatness is emerging in the National League Central Division. All you Cub fans are doomed to another 102 years before the next World Series -- if you're lucky!Despite huge pressure to trade the future of the franchise for Juan Soto, the Cardinals went after pitching. And, wow, has that made a difference. And they gave up next to nothing for what they received.Yadi is looking good, Albert's dinging and Paul and Nolan look like the MVPs they are. If we get Flaherty back this year (not optimistic), this could be THE year!Biggest concern: Wainwright is overworked and Dakota Hudson has been inconsistent.
The Cards aren’t very good. Look at who they’re playing. They’ll lose in the first round of the Playoffs. They aren’t close to a WS caliber team in any way.
They will have a great shot to win their first series.Beating the Mets after that will be a different story
During his Detroit years, we would call that 'Must see JV'. When he had that look and that rhythm, you had to watch until he gave up a hit. He needs some quick outs.
No-brainer to take Verlander out of the game.Letting your 39-year-old ace with a surgically repaired arm throw 130+ pitches to pursue an individual accomplishment in an August game would not be the best way to pursue your very attainable goal of winning the World Series.
Twins made it interesting.Unfortunately down 4-2 with bases loaded 2 outs and 2 runs already in.Jake Cave decided to strike out on 3 pitches, for his 4th K of the game. LOL.
TAMUI do know, Newsie is right on you knowing ball.
Feels like now or never for the Brew Crew. Their next 18 games are against sub .500 teams and 11 of them are at home. Catching the Cardinals is already a long shot. If they can't get a couple game lead on either San Diego or Philly by the end of this stretch, I don't see them being able to do it when they finish with 6 games against both New York teams and 4 games against the Redbirds (though ending with 6 homes games against the D-Backs and Marlins may give them a shot). Philly has an extremely soft schedule the rest of the way. San Diego has to play the Dodgers 9 more times and seems to have hit rock bottom.
