It seems to be a match made in media heaven. Everyone's loving the union between Mark McGwire and Albert Pujols. One of the best power hitters in recent baseball history is now a hitting instructor for the best player in the game, who also happens to be a power hitter.
Should Major League Baseball be excited about this grand union? Does MLB want one of it's most marketable products to be linked with one of it's most controversial?
Some, including yours truly, have already wondered if Pujols is clean. Why would a young man of such high moral standards want to embrace the questions that will come along with, not only, McGwire being with the organization, but the idea of him being a teacher of the game?
MLB has conducted a witch hunt for years and it's blatant disregard for all of the other information that has unfolded since the "Mitchell Report" has unveiled their true intentions. Baseball doesn't want justice, they want an individual. Now, they've allowed one of the kingpins of it all back into the game.
