Albert Pujols is the halos new manager?!

  1. No, Hector Gomez is saying that Franklin Mirabal (Elreydelaradio) is saying that other U.S. outlets are saying that Albert Pujols is a “strong candidate.”

    I think a lot of stuff literally got lost in translation.

  2. Imagine how weird it would be to go to the Big A and hear “now let’s meet the starting lineup foooor yooouuuurrr Angels as selected by manager Albert! Pujols!”

  3. This is a new trend but it won’t matter til Arte builds scouting and development to levels other teams have.

  4. Zero managerial experience? This isn’t strategic, it’s PR. “I dare y’all to boo Albert freaking Pujols!”

  5. Is this just a way for Moreno to get Pujols to do actual work instead of paying him for the personal services deal that was part of his free agency deal?

  6. Tbf Albert really is a great coach (from the sounds of it I think Adell got some good pointers from him this season, Trout even saw mentorship from him) and he is already getting paid whether regardless of the significance of his job

  7. Fuck it. Might as well give him a shot. Not like we’ve got anything to lose (because Arte’s already sold, or is in the process of trying to sell, every rookie worth a damn)

  8. No way. It will be Torii Hunter or Darin Erstad.

    If Pujols got hired it would remind me immediately of the Lakers hiring Magic Johnson decades ago.

    Just because you are a HOFer doesn’t mean you can coach. Magic was a disaster.

  9. Great so our players will be padding their numbers when the game is already “over” yay!

  10. I’m an Albert fan. I would hate to see him have to manage this dreadful squad and then get blamed for how bad they are.

  11. How weird to be fired twice by the same team as a player and manager, if pujols get hired and fired at some point.
