Dodgers sign Pujols

[T.G.]

I'm wondering how many here will admit to watching him tonight?

I will try to tune in while watching the Angels.

I want to see AP fail, so I will be tuning in for my first non- Angels game of the season

I’ll try to watch an at bat. 

[T.G.]

Yeah, same here.  I will only try to watch his AB's.  I'm not even sure why.

[WicketMaiden]

No, I won't watch. Would feel too much like watching a really annoying ex-girlfriend you were really glad to be rid of go on a first date with someone else. You genuinely don't care, and are really glad to be rid of the crazy witch, but if they look like they're having a good time it's probably going to piss you off anyway.

My Dodgers fan friend already called a Pujols home run off of Maddison Bumgarner tonight.

A coworker of mine said “Watch. He’ll hit two HR’s tonight.”

I'm calling 0-4 with at least one GIDP. He's still an old man waaaaay past his best.

If Pujols hangs out with the cheater Bauer, I expect a resurgence from him with the Dodgirls. Hopefully not.

Who thinks Dodgirls is cool or creative?

I don't have many Domincan ex-girlfirends who look like they're 60. 

I mean, I have some...

I think it's probably the least-clever line he uses. And that's saying something.

Yep.

Pujols said he still has "gas in the tank". Yeah, like a car heading to the junk yard does.

I am listening to AM570, the dodgers flagship station, and they think Albert Pujols is starting tonight. Matt money Smith of the dodgers flagship station says that Pujols shells righties . They had to correct him and say that Albert shells lefties, but the radio station must be in a 15 year time warp.

He ain't shelling nobody. 

I think you're getting to the source of the confusion here...

[AngelsLakersFan]

Albert's going to be worn out by the time the game starts...

[Billy_Ball]

Dodgers showing some major disrespect to Orel Hershiser!

[AngelsLakersFan]

Just flipped back to the Angels again... Did we get 3 outs or is Maddon changing pitchers already?

[JustATroutFan]

The Pujols contract was a waste. It didn't lead the Angels to a single World Series. And he had a lot of horrible seasons at the plate with the team. His only really good year with the club was his debut season in 2012. A lot of Angels fans should be happy that he's gone. Just another horrible contract like the one that they handed to Hamilton and Wilson. Pujols defenders will point out his high RBI totals. Well, he had guys who could get on base at the top of the order like Trout and Escobar (2016).

Yeah, I'm sure the best mind in baseball, Andrew Friedman, is subscribing to this blinded five year non-theory of @stormngt and @Tank. Look at the numbers guys. Take your emotions out of it. Pujols will add value to the Dodgers as an alternative to Muncy against Leftys just as he would have as an alternative to Jared Walsh against Leftys. His OPS is more than 200 points higher than either of them against LHP's.

Minasian whiffed...Friedman owns him.

I'm certain the two of you know more than Andrew Friedman...

I’m just now seeing this and wishing desperately that I was a betting man. 

[TooCool]

Pooholes first pitch swing. Flyout to LF.

[Tank]

#55 with a fly out to CF on his first at bat.

Didn't even think about this. 

Great catch.
