Albert's R/RBI streak

by salvomania on Sep 6, 2007 1:41 PM EDT Comment 3 comments

Albert's 6-year streak of 100 runs/100 rbi is in serious jeopardy:

He's now on pace---if he plays every game the rest of the way---to score 101.2 runs and to drive in 100.0 runs, leaving him little room for any kind of slump, such as the one he's in right now.

Albert has not driven in a run in the Cardinals' last 10 games. Since August 6, Albert has exactly two run-scoring hits that weren't home runs, and even his home runs are doing minimal damage: the six he hit since Aug. 6 (all in a seven-game stretch) were all solo shots except for one.

It would be a shame for him to get really close to one or both those marks and fall just short, but such a scenario seems to have a chance of playing out...

Oquendo!!!

Pujols probably should've driven in a run last night, but Oquendo held up Eckypoo at third on a two-out double by el Hombre.

it would be a shame...

but i guarantee albert is only worried about making the postseason

personally i think that there are very few players who are playing today who would even be taking the field if they were in the shape pujols is right now

Pujols is the greatest Cardinal in my lifetime.
