ALBERT PUJOLS RUMORS

A Father's Day Epic, Angels choke to Yankees 6-5 in 9th

Jesus Christ what a game. A highly un-Weaver-like start made it seem like the Angels were down and out for the count very early on, and that held up all the way until the 9th inning. A monster of an inning led the Angels to rally for 5 runs while down 6-0 to come one run within winning the game. Unfortunately with Trout up to bat with 2 men on he did the last thing we would have...

Albert Pujols is not a Top Five First Baseman

Albert Pujols has been absolutely abysmal thus far in 2013. His current triple slash sits at .243/.311/.420. Many fantasy owners are wondering whether their first round pick investment will pan out, but unfortunately I believe Pujols will finish outside the top five amongst first baseman. Here’s why: Read more by logging in or signing up for TheFantasyFix.com's "Front...

When Albert Pujols was better than Miguel Cabrera

Miguel Cabrera is the best hitter in baseball. Pretty much everyone agrees with that assessment. Oh, you might get a few Votto votes, but Cabrera has pretty much dominated the offensive world for the past three seasons. It was not long ago when that title belonged to Albert Pujols. The run Pujols put together in his first ten seasons rivaled any player that has ever played the...

Angels get back on track, working to be consistent

ANAHEIM, Calif. Albert Pujols was blunt. The last four games havent been fun here, thats for sure, the slugger said the Angels four-game sweep at the hands of the lowly Houston Astros. The equally bad Chicago Cubs looked like they would continue the Halo misery at the Big A on Tuesday as they took a 3-2 lead into the bottom of the eighth inning. But Pujols decided there would...

Pujols' 2-run HR lifts Angels over Cubs

ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) -- Albert Pujols hit a go-ahead homer in the eighth inning and drove in three runs, leading the Los Angeles Angels to a 4-3 victory over the Chicago Cubs on Tuesday night. Pujols' 484th career homer and ninth of the season not only got Jered Weaver off the hook, but also third baseman Alberto Callaspo, whose third-inning fielding error led to a pair of...

Have We Seen The Last Of A Dominant Albert Pujols?

Albert Pujols is a three-time MVP, a future first ballot Hall of Famer and one of the greatest right-handed hitters of all time. He led the St. Louis Cardinals to two World Series, and has since moved on to the American League to anchor the Angels’ offense. However, after a subpar season in 2012 (by his standards) and an even worse 2013, Pujols simply just does not look the same...

Why the Pujols contract isn't as bad as you think

A lot of conversation these past two months have revolved around Albert Pujols and his declining performance. The man is a mess of injuries, pressure, and unfair media scrutiny. I recently wrote about how all this could be worked through in an article from last week. One of the talking points was sticking Pujols in the DH spot, indefinitely. This is something we all knew would happen...

What in the world to do with Albert Pujols?

Wow. Who would have thought we'd be seeing headlines like that only two years into the Pujols contract. Most people speculated we wouldn't be seeing any significant problems with him until about 5-6 years into the contract. It seems now that the Angels have some serious deliberating to do on the topic of what is going to happen with Pujols. I don't want to come off as...

Will the Angels place Albert Pujols on the DL?

Albert Pujols has been battling plantar fasciitis all season.  For anyone who has ever experienced this condition, you know it's tough to manage.  Pujols and the Los Angeles Angels believe the pain is manageable and Pujols can play through it.  However, Pujols' production has been down and he is sitting at times when he otherwise wouldn't.  Yesterday, Pujols was...
