The St. Louis Cardinals are 2-5 at this point and not off to the start I had hoped. The offense has been sluggish and the defense has been lackadaisical. Albert Pujols has not produced to this point and the team struggles when it's star player struggles. But, we all know it's a long season. To speak in a cliche, this is a marathon not a sprint. I know Pujols will produce as the season progresses. This is just a bump in the road. So Cardinal fans get off of Albert's back and leave him alone.
If this team is going to win, he will have to carry it. I just hope management has given Albert enough of a supporting cast to be competitive in the always lame National League Central division.
