More Troubling Pujols news

Albert Pujols continues to scare me with all of the elbow talk. News today says that Pujols has a torn ligament in his throwing elbow, bone spurs, inflamation, and arthritis in the elbow joint. At some point, he will have total reconstruction surgury on the elbow. He wants to wait until the end of the year but it'll have to hold up all year for that to happen. Look for him to DH in all interleague play games. I can't see Albert going in the top rounds of fantasy drafts this year but I might be wrong. He did go 2-3 yesterday with a homer and a single in spring training. The elbow problem led to 17 fewer homers, 34 few RBIs, and a lower slugging percentage but his average and on-base stayed pretty much the same last year as compared to the previous few.
