In a town, where the arch resides, one of the world’s greatest artifacts that overlooks the city and where the Mississippi River streams along St. Louis. In the town, there’s also baseball’s unquestionable hitter who hails before the enthusiastic Red Birds fans, where average fans contains of Pujols’ Craziness.
As baseball entered the All-Star break, conversations converge that Albert Pujols is the best hitter, and presumptions that he’s the purist hitter in baseball. From what it seems, Pujols gifted and artistic powerful swings, illustrates his patience and alertness at the plate and articulate his will and focus to deposit shots into the stands.
Much of Pujols slugfests and smash ball hitting has drawn our attention and awes us, putting steroid debacles behind us as he showcases ways to legitimately hit without any substances. As people, we want to believe Pujols is pure, and isn’t a suspect of fraud.
As people, we would be very disappointed, hurt, cheated and betrayed if his name ever surfaced that he uses performances-enhancers. I wouldn’t be surprised since we are witnessing a contaminated Steroid Era, and a stubborn commissioner, Bud Selig, who hasn't done much to remove toxic waste from poisoning its image.
But I believe in Pujols and have a sentiment he’s the purist hitter in the game today.
He could even heal bitterness and anguish from masses who have departed from the deceitful game.
Pujols is the player everyone envisions, a positive role model, a purist and a slugger who seems honest and in reviving the sport and removing memories of steroid bust and juicer's of staining America’s pastime.
In an era where steroids have casted disgraceful cognizance, we vow that Pujols is innocenct of any substances and hope profoundly he is baseball’s only alternative to disencumber any catastrophes occupying the tattered sport.
Even though it’s naïve and unknown, assuming anyone in this age is clean, Pujols have done well avoiding steroid conversations, and employing as a person of interest. He has never broadcasted himself as a person of guilt or fault, and his name has never being mentioned as a suspect of shameless crimes.
So, are there enough facts to assume he has never injected or pumped himself with juice? Yes, I trust Pujols more than any other player amid our tainted era.
This year, has being a year of steroid busts, the year an anonymous list unveils and comprises of 104 players. Only two players from the list have being uncovered, while everyone else’s name still remains occulted. By summoning the past, some of the biggest scandals developed shameful scorns.
Pitifully, Alex Rodriguez was a target of fraud, when the list of 104 players unveiled that he used performance-enhancing drugs. A year ago, Roger Clemens surfaced as a criminal, when the George Mitchell report comprised of his name as one of the players who used substances to improve level of legitimacy. And as the entire world knows, Barry Bonds lied about his delusive juicing addiction and Mark McGuire, who refused to talk about the past, vanished from the game and was humiliated of treachery.
But Pujols haven’t experience no dismay or embarrassment. He’s devoted to the game, and focuses to invoke slugfests. He isn’t a cocky slugger, and embraces others whose natural talent or even fraudulent talent had an imprint. Greater than Pujols' demeanor, is his ability to still preserve power shots since drug testing initiated several years ago. Those are hints of a purist, as other player’s slugging percentages and batting averages have toppled.
For now, there’s nothing suspicious about Pujols, having an astonishing year and producing enough runs to keep the Cardinals floating atop the division lead. With the Chicago Cubs faulty curses and long-suffering struggles, logic has it the Cards are favorites as long as Pujols continues his fascinating homers and RBI productivity.
The dramatic power and constant home run dominance regularly has heated up Triple Crown discussions. And if there’s anyone close to surpassing an impossible milestone, it will be Pujols. At the All-Star break, he has a staggering 32 homers, 87 runs driven in, and a .332 batting average, results that qualifies as potentially the next Triple Crown winner and the first since Carl Yastrzemski won the Crown in 1967.
Pujols is the right candidate, and the most talented hitter naturally. It is rare to find a hitter as perfect as Pujols, and a singular slugger who can accumulate at least 30 homers by the start of the second-half of the regular-season. Currently, he’s on pace to hit at least 60 home runs this season.
He’s enough to make us inspired, and finally say wow! As it seems, we are finally witnessing the best player of our time
He is King Arthur, a Machine no one can replicate. And he gives baseball a feeling of elation.
In Pujols, we trust.
