And he was ahead of the count 3-2, and walked. You said he's *always* behind in the count. Read your post. That implies he's never ahead in the count, which also implies that he doesn't walk, which he does, and at a good rate.
-2.1 fWAR since 2017. Hopefully the new manager in 2019 benches Pujols (or he gets released). There's no way any team can be serious about contending with someone like that in the lineup.
The Mariners are just too good for the Angels. 12 games ahead now. Oakland are too good also. 4 games ahead. Just gotta tip your cap to these teams and turn the page.
Seriously. One has to be incredibly stupid to believe that any player would make $400 million decisions based on the manager they play for. Can you imagine Trout telling Arte he’d accept $400 million only if Scioscia stays, and if not, he’d reject the money? Yeah, me neither.
