Is Albert Pujols on Steriods?

No.  The difference between players like Pujols and Bonds is age and talent.  Think of Pujols as the LeBron of baseball.  Pujols is so young and takes care of his body well.  Everyone knew from the beginning he would be a great player.  On the other hand, when you're over 40 years old and look like a truck as Bonds does, you know he has to be taking supplements to maintain his strength and figure.  Pujols doesn't need to take roids.  He might need to in about 15 years but he's smarter than that.  Plus, he's a great human being.  He's the kind of player that baseball needs more of.

Sorry, but I don't play video games, so I don't know if this fits your criteria.  I think Albert Pujols of the St. Louis Cardinals is one of the purest players I've ever seen.  I'm not a fan of the team, but I think he's an amazing player.

pujols....he is so consistent it's amazing...i think he has a better eye than a-rod and let's face it pujols does it in the playoffs also, whereas a-rod hasn't shown an ability to do anything in the postseason other than karate chop the ball out of a pitcher's glove...bonds is a terrific hitter but unfortunately it took steroids to get him to that level

--- First of all, I'm sick of people accusing ALL players of using steroids if they're doing well in baseball. Some people just have natural talent! To whoever is rolling their eyes at this, has Pujols ever failed a drug test? Giambi? Bonds? A-Rod? Sheffield? Whether you remember or not, people HAVE failed drug tests. As far as the baseball world is concerned, they're clean.\n--- Secondly, the sport needs a player like Pujols. With all the steroid allegation surrounding baseball, a clean home run hitter is just what we need to peek fans' interest in the game again, just as McGwire and Sosa's chase of the home run record after the lockout. Let's face it, fans like offense.\n--- FInally, anyone who calls someone a cheater just because they're good at what they do is jealous of their ability. That's all there is to this steroids issue.

Around 800. I heard that he is currently on pace to hit 776 homers. He's still improving too, so that total could be even higher. He is not taking steriods, it is natural talent. Go Cards!!!

I'd have to say he would be quite close.  Albert Pujols is doing amazing things in a cardinal's uniform.  Each have their talents: Pujols=power, ichiro=speed/hits.  They both will have amazing hall of fame careers and are sure to break a few major records along the way.

Projected Stats for Albert Pujols assuming he averages a typical Albert Pujols season for the next 5 years:\n\nG 1580\nAVG .333\nHR 402\nRBI 1242\nR 1258\n\nIf those are not HOF worthy numbers (among the many others that could be listed) for 10 seasons, then I don't know what is.  HOF = yes

When I heard about Pujols, I thought the same thing as Georgie Porgie... what a whiner he was, and how great Derek Jeter looks in comparison... \n\nWhen the Yankees were winning their four world championships in the late 90s, the MVP awards went to the Texas Rangers (3 times) and the Oakland A's (once)... does Pujols think we need to take those MVP awards back?\n\nIf the CArdinals didn't play in such a sorry division, they couldn't have made the playoffs to begin with....it's not Ryan Howard's fault that the Mets ran away with the division this year...and, as someone pointed out earlier, the Phillies did have a better record than the Cardinals anyway...\n\nAlbert is a jerk, he needs to shut up...

No, he is not.  Did you see how poorly he did this season when they were testing for steroids.  I think that he stopped using them this season so he would not get in trouble.  If you use steroids, why do you deserve to be on the all time homerun list? Plus, there's the whole cork in the bat incident.  He had to cheat to get his homeruns.

Albert will get his mvp award on nov. 20th . I'll give Howard his just rewards for being a homerun hitter but the facts are , Pujols is a better all around hitter . A better fielder, a better base runner and now a world champion. He also missed 24 games with an injury this year and still hit his share of homers. The mvp goes to the most valuable player , not just the best homerun hitter.

A-Rod and Albert Pujols are both good.  They can both make histories, depends on how long they will play.  I list their carrier stats below  (the top one is Pujols)\n\nAB     R      HR      RBI     SB     AVG     OPS\n2995    644     209    638     31     .333    1.043   \n6242    1256    432    1235    228    .307    .962\n\nClearly A-Rod has better speed, the rest are close.  I do think Pujols could have better carrier stats if he is at a better offsensive team.  But we'll see.

This is a no brainer! It has to be Albert! The Cards won the series, without him they would not have done that(sure the pitching helped also)! Howard and the Phillies had a great season, but you cant argue with Pujols being the unanomous choice in this question!

Pujols without a doubt.  Thome is know to go into some major slumps.  Right now Pujols could be on his way to being one of the greatest PLAYERS ever.  His numbers are staggering for such a short career so far.  He is as intimadating as hell.  I saw him golf swing a pitch last week that still hasn't landed yet.  The pitch was at his ankles and he made it look effortless.  If he stays healthy on this pace, he has a chance someday to break almost every offensive category (HR/Season, HR/Career, RBI, Average).

No they have the St. Louis Cardinals in the division even without pujols. Derrek Lee and Mark Prior are great additions but the Cubs won't have a chance this year.

Daubach is in AAA with the Memphis Redbirds, the St. Louis Cardinal farm team.  It says a lot about him that with Pujols on the DL, Daubach was not called up, even though Daubach is hitting pretty well.\n\nHis major league career is probably over.
