Pujols

I've watched in total awe for 10 years as Albert Pujols has put up monster year after monster year after monster year.  10 straight hall-of-fame caliber years to start a career.  But, for the first time Pujols is looking mortal in 2011.  One quarter of the way into the year, the big man is hitting 60 points under his career average, is 70 points below his career OBP, and almost 200 points below his ridiculous career .620 slugging average.  Is it the contract that has him distracted, an unreported injury, or just the law of averages catching up to him?

It is early in the season and a visit to his homeland will probably fix his problem.

Notice how I avoided the subject I really want to discuss.
