    Pujols Finally Homers

    Pujols hit his first homerun of the spring off of Jason Jennings in the third inning today at Houston. Pujols breaks out of his mini streak and hopefully can get the Cards going in the right direction.

    On another note, LaRussa has got to do something with his lineup. Preston Wilson and Chris Duncan should not be hitting 2nd in the lineup ahead of Pujols. They need guys who can put the ball in play and get on base.

    Thank you! La Russa is a moron for doing this and I don't know why he continues to.
    I did a lot of good things as a sim league GM.

    Ah, give me something clever to say here.

    Duncan has gotten on base at a respectable .362 clip in his short career.

    I wouldn't mind him hitting second in my lineup.

    He also has 80 SO's in just 308 ABs. I'd rather have him batting fifth in my lineup.

    The strikeouts don't bother me since they are just another out.

    Ask the Reds to bat Dunn in the 2 hole. Its the same thing.

    Dunn has batted in the two-hole several times this year already.

    Batting Dunn in the 2 spot (I refuse to say 2 hole) is a great idea.

    Yeah, I looked and they've done it in 3 out of 6 games. They won all 3.
