Here's to hoping that what Albert may accomplish this year is not overshadowed by the ever groing carnival that is Barry Bonds.

Perhaps Pujols will overshadow Bonds if he breaks Bonds' Home Runs in a Season record.

Call me crazy, but I don't think there's any way he'll hit 70+ home runs. Not without help from the cream and clear.

Don't get me wrong. Pujols is amazing. He's a modern day Lou Gehrig. I just feel that the season is so long that its inevitable players get tired throughout the course of the year. History has shown that hitting 60 homeruns, when not on steroids, is an extremely difficult thing to do, let alone hitting 74+.

I wonder if the ban on amphetamines would have a greater impact on chances to get to 70+ than steroids.

I think he could hit 70 easy this year. I am more curious to see if he will get 200 RBIs. That would be an awesome accomplishment.

I agree. 200 rbi would just be insane. Would love to see that.

Yes big ups for 200 RBI if that happens. I also think that Albert will tire, plus teams will just start pitching around him more, especially down the stretch. BUT I did read somewhere a good point that brought up the fact that the summertime air could help him out. If he's hitting 'em at this rate during the cold months, imagine what he could do in July.

Pujols has never hit more than 46 home runs in a season - expecting him to hit 47 through 115 without much trouble seems overly optimistic.

He's already halfway to 46. Unless he becomes possessed by a Royal in the near future, he's going to shatter 46.

Yes, but is he going to hit more than 46 over the next 115 games?
