schmidtfan20 said:I was really surprised just how close Howard is to Pujols in those stats. Pujols has always been the better
hitter, but Howard has more HR's and RBI's.
My argument all along has always been that Pujols is what a lot of people call and will call the greatest player of his
generation, but here we are and Howard is comparable. I mean he strikes out a lot and the on base % isn't great, but
he actually has better run production than Albert and that says a lot. Howard also batted behind perhaps the greatest
power hitting 2nd basemen ever. There were plenty of RBI's taken away there, Pujols was basically the only guy who
could hit them out on this team.
Right now I would take Pujols if the money was equal (even though it isn't), but if Howard can lead the Phillies offense
to another world championship, then I would say Howard. I might also add that Albert seems a bit stuck up and Ryan
is a great guy off the field too, sort of in the same mold as a Tony Gwynn. You can't put a price on that.

A non-troll posts. Those TA (trolls anonymous) meetings must really be working for you.
I disagree with you on most of it, but at least you don't come off as a troll!
Baby steps.

You're really going to get insensitive after all the crap you've INTENTIONALLY posted to goat people?

I think I've had a problem with like two of your posts ever. Hardly calls for me to foe you. Doesn't mean you aren't a troll. If you cut out that non sense, you could be a valued member here. I've seen you in non-troll mode (rare) and its respectable.
schmidtfan20 said:so you have a small problem with me and decide to derail a topic that the OP specifically says not to? I would rather hear
more on why you think I am wrong.
Thanks

No one else in the lineup?Joshua.Roundtree said:Saying Pujols 'is the only guy on his team that can knock them in' makes the argument for Pujols as the superior player.
He has no one else in his line-up, so rarely gets pitched to, with little to no protection.
