I am considering making a trade for him in my fantasy baseball league, but I remember during spring training a lot of talk about his health being a concern this year. Does anyone know what is wrong with him, if anything at all, and how serious it is? Any information you can tell me would be great because I was unable to find any, which I hope is a good thing. _________________

Wow. I wonder if it is something he will play with all year. I gotta find out for sure what is going on before I trade for him. _________________

So the $1,000,000 question is, do I trade Felix Hernandez and Miguel Tejada for Albert Pujols and Brett Myers. I have Hanley Ramirez, so Tejada has been riding pine anyways. I just gotta decide if I want to gamble on Pujols health. What would you guys do? And just so you know, the scoring in our league is heavily favored for hitters. _________________

So you think I should make the trade? Just to clarify...
I get: Pujols & Brett Myers
He gets: Felix Hernandez & Miguel Tejada

Forgetting about the trade, do you believe Pujols will play the entire year, or are you concerned his injury will affect him and cause him to miss significant time? _________________

I think Pujols with play this entire year. I have no reason to believe he wont. If he needs Tommy John surgery and plans to put it off, he is in position to do so since he is a position player and not a pitcher. Im not concerned with his injury affecting because by looking at the stats, it hasnt done it so far, and no reason to believe it will later. Does this help? _________________

Yes, that definitely helps. Thanks! I'm going to see if I can find more information on his injury because if I do trade for him, it will be a big gamble and could potentially cripple my team if it doesn't work out. If you happen to come across any recent articles about his injury, please link them here. I'll keep you updated about what I decide to do. _________________

What i remember about the injury was it was a rumor because it was posted in one of these threads. He never fully admitted to anything being wrong. _________________

Pujols is gonna play the whole year...he was mulling over the surgery decision in Spring Training but says he feels fine...do the trade Myers is looking pretty good as well and w/ Bedard on the DL King Felix is back to being their number #1 a role I don't believe he is best suited for YET! _________________

Pujols has much more value than King Felix. If Tejada is rotting on the bench then I think it's a good trade. _________________
