But Pujols didn't bounce around the minor leagues for a couple of years either.

I guess it would be similar to Ryan Ludwick and Ludwick showed some staying power. But hell, Ludwick was once a very highly thought of prospect who'd made it to the majors before serious injuries set him back.

How many guys in any sport can you think of that were never highly regarded coming out of school, didn't do anything to distinguish themselves at the pro level for a couple of years and then finally just seemingly overnight became a league average or better starter?

It's just bizarre.
