Will Pujols hit a HR in 2012?

[GiantsFan14]

and in his 4th at bat he grounds out on a 3-0 fastball that was at the belt right over the heart of the plate. man is he bad.

Trout with the HR.
The Angels have two other firstbasemen, they should seriously consider sending Pujols down or sticking him on the DL for 14 days.
I don't know if I can handle much more.

Some times one of these goofy games where hits just start to fall in can spark a player to break out of a slump. As an owner of Pujols for 2 days now I'll take the 4 for 8 with 2 RBI.

I am not one to panic or incite panic but after watching this video I am admittedly curious. I don't know the guy... is that kind of reaction normal for him?

he was rumored to be one of the ones who didn't like Brendan Ryan's "goofiness" that lead to him getting traded and bringing in the disaster named Theriot to replace him, but he didn't really do anything like that publicly on the field.

He's often come off as surly, though.

That was the best contact Pujols has made all year.


*stolen joke BTW*

[SpecialFNK]

it's the hitting coaches fault, must be.
the Angles fired, or "dismissed" hitting coach.

@Alden_Gonzalez
Angels beat writer and columnist for MLB.com.
The #Angels have dismissed hitting coach Mickey Hatcher

[wrveres]

Firing the hitting coach always works.

Firing the hitting coach always works.

3 run jack for Albert.

Just sent Fielder/Dunn/Valverde off for Pujols/Motte

I figure I'm selling Dunn high but at the same time buying Pujols to be the sure-fire first rounder that we've all loved for so long...fingers crossed!!

This is a 10x10 league with bb/k/2b/3b/ops and I also have Uggla and Bruce so I definitely wanted to dump some K's as well
