In Class: Logos

The artifact that i brought in today that represents logos is the stats and awards of baseball player Albert Pujols. I decided to choose Albert because I feel you can make a case of him being the best player in current baseball and possibly one of the best of all time by looking at his numbers. All the facts are layed out on a paper easy to understand, this way you can compare him to known greats like Joe DiMaggio, Babe Ruth, Hank Aaron, and a few others. There is no disputing the evidence that Pujols has hit 30 homeruns and batted over 300 for the ten seasons he has played professional ball. What may be in dispute could be if he will continue his exceptional playing ability as long as those in the past. The statistics sheet of Albert Pujols is a clear example of logos, it shows the facts, and the facts say he is one of the best.

  1. I completely agree with you and your assessment of Albert Pujols. While i'm not a huge fan of him persay, it's hard to dispute your opinion when yopu appeal to logic by stating facts. Is he ranked one of the top players based on the facts provided? Yes, so your argument gains vast credibillity.
