Bleach,
Thanks for putting the link in. I guess I forgot to post it.
I think this is an example of piling on. Pujols made a few guys from the press core mad this post-season, and now they are trying to, for lack of a better word, retaliate.
As for the injury to Pujols, I agree that it hurt him. Not only did it hurt his overall numbers, but the Cards also won a good portion of the games he missed. Then when he came back from the injury they hit their first substantial bump in the road. Now I'm not sure if the national media is aware of this aspect, but if they are it might have affected the voting.
