Pujols?

[AJOHNSON104]

He's been decent so far for the Dodgers. .254/.294/.493. Not great, but considering how down offense is and how bad Brewers offense has been, he could have helped a little. However, he wasn't going to sign here unless 10 other teams passed.

According to both DRS and UZR/150, Vogelbach has played better defense than Pujols. Using Fangraphs baserunning metric, Vogelbach has run the bases better than Pujols (not surprised, the eyeball test tells me that most 35 year old backup catchers look like true speedsters compared to Pujols). And in terms of 2021 WAR, Vogelbach is ahead in both bWAR and fWAR. Any contribution that Pujols can make with the bat these days will likely be completely cancelled by the other aspects of his game, which at this point are truly dreadful.

Not bad for a 44-year-old, honestly.
