Bio
School: Maple Woods Community College
Drafted: 13th round of the 1999 draft by the St. Louis Cardinals
Scouting Report: Pitchers find few ways to consistently retire Pujols. He can occasionally appear anxious on offspeed pitches away, a strategy Boston used with some success in the World Series. And it is sometimes possible to jam Pujols with high, hard stuff. However, he turns on the best hard stuff with amazing regularity, and pitching him away runs the risk of him using his remarkable power to the opposite field. Pujols has always been an outstanding breaking-ball hitter, and his mastery of the strike zone improves each year. He is an aggressive baserunner who makes good decisions. Despite limited range, he grew into a solid defensive asset with an accurate arm and improving ability to pick low throws from the dirt.
