Re: Pujols



In case you weren't exactly sure what Mark meant, let me clarify:  if you have the best player in baseball on your team, your team is better as a result.  Too complicated?  Let it marinade, feel free to meditate on it.  Mark's going to be a doctor someday, and he's already starting to talk over our heads.  I'll conduct a simple exercise to further reveal his findings:

Pirates + Albert Pujols = Better Team

Mark's Corolla + Engine from Formula 1 = Faster Car

France + Freedom = America

Nice Personality + Better Looks = Great Catch

Luke + The Force = Successful Rebellion

Enola Gay + Little Boy = End of World War II

8 (small number) + 1,384 (much bigger number) = 1,392 (an even bigger number)

Essentially, a little goodness plus a lot of goodness equals a big ole batch of goodness.

So enough of this talk of Garret Anderson, Paul Konerko, and Mike Lowell being as good as Albert Pujols.  Let's get to the pertinent issues, like Jose Bautista being a modern day Brady Anderson.  Oh wait, that's like saying Barack Obama is a modern day Bill Clinton.  Brady's final season was in 2002, he is not a historical player.  And with the whole "steroid" thing , this picture is evidence enough that he didn't juice:

After all, think of all the baseball players who look just like this... right off the top of my head I have Carlos Zambrano, David Ortiz, and Prince Fielder.  The list goes on, people!  Anyways, I hope Mark's post about offense winning championships is cleared up now.
