    Just because I can post on a message board doesn't mean I can read and make informed opinions first. I thought that was common knowledge here. 😆

    I like the shoot and ask questions later approach.

  2. Pre-injury(s), Miggy was on pace to be top 10 in many offensive categories.  He was a shell of himself at the end of his career, and unfortunately, many will remember him that way.  During his peak years in Detroit, he was probably the 2nd greatest player in Tiger history, after Cobb.

    Through age 33, which is when Cabrera stopped hitting, he had an OPS+ of 155 with 70 WAR.  Pujols had a 165 OPS+ and 93 WAR through age 33.  Pujols was one of the best defensive first basemen during his prime.  Cabrera was a below average defender most of his career.  Pujols was better than Cabrera.  Not staying fit is a poor excuse!     

    Agree that Pujols was better (are we really arguing this?), but it’s also like comparing Rachel Welch to Ann Margaret.  And Miggy’s decline was mostly due to injuries and less about his conditioning, though they might be related.
