Coming off the worst season of his Major League career, Albert Pujols is feeling better and won't try to be "Superman" with the Los Angeles Angels in 2014.
"I want to stay healthy and play every day," Pujols said. "The numbers are going to be there at the end, because I know how to hit."
Pujols had a .258 batting average with 17 home runs and 64 RBIs last season -- all career-lows for the three-time National League MVP.
The slugger is entering this season with the mindset that he doesn't need to play at first base every day, and is willing to be the designated hitter -- or sit out.
"I know I'll be ready for Opening Day," Pujols said. "I've been doing it for 14 years. I know not to try to do too much."
