Murphy at DH is good news.

[Homebrewer]

I like the look of your lineup card better!

Whoever does those is a busy guy...they look like work

I know Pujols has 33hr but hopefully some rest will get his average up 70 points.

He must be hurting if he's taking a day off after hitting a HR last night. Oh wait, Scioscia always benches a player after they have done something good in the previous game. It's a miracle Cron's in the lineup.

Does Albert have 70 RBI's yet

Well the leash is longer for Albert.  But he went yard in back to back games.  We can't have him doing it in three straight, that's just too much for them old bones.

Mang.

[Troll Daddy]

Trout has 71 rbi's

 

Both Trout & Pujols both tied at 33 HR's apiece ... I guessing they have a little wager on the out come.

[Chuck]

Pujols' bat has woken up, Trout's not so much. We need contributions up and down the lineup.

[Erstad Grit]

Pujols has 3 HR in last 4 games. 

[Erstad Grit]

Glad Perez is in.

Pujols taking days off during a division race in the dog days

Wtf how soft can this team get

[Ray McKigney]

Conspiracy alert: Pujols made an agreement with Obama that he would not alllow any team he is on to sweep the White Sox. Here is a picture of them making the deal:

He'll be toast if he keeps pushing those legs to the breaking point.  The question becomes do you want him capable 80% of the time, or not at all in terms of effectiveness.

Who's the guy in the middle, Obama's bookie?

[Hollyw00d]

Pujolds finally starts hitting and of course he gets benched

Smh

[Hollyw00d]

I guess we can be happy that jb shuck isn't our 5 hole hitter

Not much difference in Shuck and DeJesus....

[Homebrewer]

I'm going out on a limb and predicting a high scoring, extra inning game, with both pens being heavily used.

Beat me to it........was about to comment on the old "bench after HR"

[Dick B Back]

Cronnie batting 5th!

Cron playing 1B.

He wouldn't be in there if Pujols wasn't taking a day off....DeJesus and Murphy would be in there....ok with Murphy but DeJesus looks like Joyce at the plate right now....

Albert looks like he's at least 50 in that picture.
