I’m not serious. I just think it’s hilarious how your blind hatred of everything involving the Cards makes you unable to admit you were wrong about Pujols injuries being serious enough to hurt his output.

BTW, “Dark Knight” was a bit overrated, IMO. Very good movie, but not nearly as good as some folks were saying. Ledger was excellent, though.

In the immortal words of he mortal Heath Ledger, “Why so serious?”

Scroll up and read comment #8, which I wrote in March.

Still not admitting his total and complete wrongness. Hatred of another team is a really dangerous thing and can completely blind one from seeing what is truly there.

Dude, I admitted I was wrong. Obviously the big difference between the two of us.

“Also can’t wait to see Soto show how over-hyped he is right now. Talk about much ado over nothing…” There’s your LOL pards!

LOL If you recall, I told you that Pujols has been playing with the same elbow and foot injuries for almost 4 years now. It wasn’t a big deal for him to play through it and I knew that. You obviously did not.

You’re not telling us anything new. The whole premise was that Pujols would not make it through the year due to injuries. It was never that Fielder was better.

Okay, we’re almost through the season now and we can look back at this one and re-evaluate. I was wrong about Soto. The kid can hit and has some pop. He isn’t a great defensive player, but better than I gave him credit for.

Now let’s talk about Pujols.
.360 BA 33 HR’s 96 RBI’s .467 OBP .655 Slugging % (the 2nd ranked player in slugging is Berkman at .602) OPS 1.121
And defensively, he’ll win the gold glove this year.

He leads the major leagues in BA, OBP, SP, and OPS.
Yeah, looks like that elbow injury didn’t hurt him too much. I think AP has a great chance to be the NL MVP this season. IMO, without him, the Cards would be under .500.

Fielder’s numbers .261 BA 28 HR’s 84 RBI’s .361 OBP .472 SP
Um, I think I’d rather have Pujols and so would any GM in the game.
