To give Pujols the slightest bit of credit, he jumped ship from the National League to the American League. That's basically taking 11 years of dealing with a certain set of teams and pitchers, and throwing it out of the window.
I've heard that same argument many times but personally, I just don't buy that sh*t. If you can hit, you can hit. Oftentimes hitting boils down to taking advantage of pitcher's mistakes, and Pujols thus far has been incapable of doing even that. I'm not saying that I know what's wrong with Pujols, because I don't, but chalking it up to him facing new pitchers (as if pitching rotations in the National League never change) seems like a cop out, especially when the guy has the third highest batting average in the history of the MLB's interleague play. Maybe he just isn't seeing the ball well, maybe he keeps re-injuring a massive polyp on his asshole every time he takes a swing, whatever the problem, I don't think it's AL pitching.
Nationals need to start producing some damn offense. I'm sick of seeing them lose one run ballgames when the pitching has been superb. Still, you need pitching to win, which they have, so I remain cautiously optimistic about them going forward.

Yeah the Marlins have the same problem, but I know the offense is gonna start clicking eventually we have to many bats. Stanton hit a grand slam today that broke the scoreboard, he's a monster.
Sidenote - That flagrant foul they just called on WorldPeace is bullsh*t, you could argue it wasn't even a foul he had all ball.

Flashforward a month later, and he's doing okay. Supposedly it was his family not moving out to California until the kids got out of school.
Anyway, this kid has the potential to be the AL ROY, MVP, Gold Glover for CF, and win the batting title(maybe not in one year. Lets say two)...
