Albert Pujols

[Solomon]

he is on pace to hit 82 home runs this season, but I doubt that will happen. i imagine pretty soon that they will start pitching around him as would said earlier. if he does not break the single season record this season, he will break soon, as long as he stays healthy. He should also give Aaron, Bonds, and Ruth a good run(that was weird to type, it has always been Aaron and Ruth)

 

A lot of that depends on what the guys around him do. Rolen is starting to hit very well. Granted, he's still no AP, but he can make you pay.

 

It takes a lot of factors, but he has adaquete people to "cover" him so that in most cases, teams are going to have to pitch to him.

 

At this point, I think he has a very legitimate shot at hitting 74.

Steve Philips said that Pujols will pass bonds 73 yesterday, but I still dont see it happening! Eventually teams will start pitching around him so that anyone beats them except Pujols!

25 homeruns...wow! That`s something that is always fun to watch...someone chasing a record. I always use to check the boxscores everyday when someone like Boggs or Carew were giving chase to hitting .400 for the season. That`s something I`d really liike to see acheived again. What active player has the best chance to hit .400?

 

 

Ichiro--speed lots of infield hits, puts ball in play--had kind of a down year for him last year, but anyone that can get 262 hits might could hit .400.

Wonder how long it will be before rumors start to spread about steriods?

Why should they? You can lift weights without steroids. And Pujols has always been a big guy, he's gained an average of 3 pounds a year in MLB so far.

All St. Louis fans got crushing news today. He will probably be going on the DL.

Tough break for Pujols and the Cards. Hope he is not out long.

He got hurt today. This kills his chances of 74. But he's still my 1 and only pick for 756. That might have been what jinxed him. Ken Griffey Jr. was my 1 and only pick at 1 time.

Well look at it this way Opp. He may rehab a game or two in Memphis if he does go on the DL.

This ain't lookin' good.

 

It's official.....we need another bat.

Clemens coming back and Pujols going on DL! Watch for the Stros to make a push! The Cards go as Pujols does!!!
