Albert Pujols looks at his Top Postseason Moments Ever 

IKR!

I would pay to see Al Leiter talk pitching while on amphetamines..

Yikes, I like Al, but dang that was annoying!

No seriously, this is a legend talking. Give him his f****** time to speak! He cut him off like 20 times.. Mad disrespectful!

“Heel for me was something that I-“ “Alright stand here, would ya?” “Heel for me was something that I-“ “To that camera” “Heel for me was something that I…”

Not one of he’s the best

Walked into the stadium that night booed for my cards gear. walked out feeling like a million bucks

Thank you for mentioning this. The game you mention is one of the most insane things I've ever seen in the playoffs. His 3 HR game gets lost in that series of crazy moments but it's one of the best offensive performances of anyone in baseball post season history. Seeing that happen live it was like watching a human surpass what's known. He had 14 total bases that game, which is a record.

Not better than Big Papi or Manny Ramirez

@@currencyprofits If we’re talking overall career, he’s miles better than both of them. And overall in the postseason, he has better numbers than Big Papi too. Papi is a legend and I won’t deny that, but out of his 3 notable postseason runs 2 of them were great and 1 was above average. Pujols was consistently GREAT in almost every postseason series he was in. Manny is a different story though lol he was just a beast.

10:35 I was so annoyed at Leiter lol. I imagine he has a time limit he is under so he has to hurry Pujols up but come on lol. He asks him a question so let him answer.

It's just time limitation. He asked about this before in a interview that he sadly doesn't get enough time during segments like this.

Not enough time and the greats in baseball are just treated differently. You are really looked at, as a great. And #5 is definitely that. So I think excitement was part of it.

Because tRaDiTi0n

He should’ve been there the moment he hit number 700. The world should’ve screeched to a halt to give this man the induction he deserves.

love this comment.

All I know is he definitely wasnt 42 when he retired, which means he definitely is not 45 or whatever in this clip lol. He is for sure older

@BBallHistoric ever see pictures of him from high school? Dude looks like he's got 2 ex-wives and a mortgage.

I'm leaning on the side of him being the best hitter for the Cardinals. He played in an era where he faced the best talent on the planet. The Pujols slump was basically him going 1 for 4 in a game.

@Sam0 B00 lmao 😂 RBIs are what help your team not single base hits. Pujols is 2nd all time in RBI and top 4 in every other category plus gold gloves mvps World Series etc. ichiro was great but not an all time great like Aaron, Ruth and Pujols.

@Sam0 B00 if base hits only matter vs actually driving in runs then why does Ichiro have no world series rings? Pujols had the best 11 yr stretch of any player EVER. If he stayed in St Louis he wouldve passed Aaron and Bonds without a doubt. Just look at what he did in his age 42 season. Without him this year my Cards crumbled. Like I said Ichiro is great but Id put him top 30 all time where Pujols is literally #2. And btw Pujols had over 300 more hits in his career than Ichiro and he didnt play til he was 45. Btw also if single base hits mattered why did Pujols score so many more runs?doubles? I could go on FOREVER. there’s literally no base of thinking Ichiro is better at all except he was a faster runner. Pujols wasnt slow til he got hurt on the Angels. He used to be a left fielder

@@sam0b007Nah this argument is absolutely bonkers. Pujols leads Ichiro, over both of their careers, in practically EVERY SINGLE MAJOR offensive stat. He has a better career OPS, OPS+, OBP and SLUG%, has more HRs, RBIs and he even leads your “best pure hitter of all time” in OVERALL HITS. And to so arrogantly argue Ichiro being, once again, YOUR “best pure hitter of all time” is also ignorant. ESPECIALLY when Tony Gwynn, who is universally known as the best pure contact hitter the game has ever seen, leads Ichiro in EVERY SINGLE OFFENSIVE STAT THAT PUJOLS DOES ALSO. OBP, OPS, OPS+, BA, SLUG%, RBI’s, HR’s, AND H’s. Am I trying to say that Ichiro isn’t great? Absolutely not. He’s easily top 3 pure CONTACT hitters ever and was one of my favorite players to watch growing up. But unfortunately, hitting is about overall PRODUCTION, which includes everything I just listed. And statistically, Ichiro didn’t produce NEARLY as much as Pujols did. And I don’t care that he played half of his career in Japan, “what if” points don’t mean anything when discussing TANGIBLE evidence of the things we’re talking about. Quite literally the ONLY thing that Ichiro has on Pujols or even Tony Gwynn is his defense, and his speed. That’s it. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, but to insinuate that Ichiro is a greater overall player than Pujols because he’s only better at defense is just stupid. I’d love to read how you’re going to try and avoid real statistics with your reply, if you even do reply.

None of the so called all stars today can do that. Judge might hut 40 HR but he'll strikeout 200 times

That's a truly amazing fact

And fuckin Ryan Howard won the mvp with like 50hrs and 150ks

This was around the Time where pujols was as feared as Barry bonds if a runner was on or in scoring position pujols got walked every time like bonds did that's goat stuff 💯

Pujols should have won the MVP that year. If voters were using modern analytics at the time, it would have been a no brainer. The stats are pretty glaring in Pujols favor except for homeruns. Howard had an amazing year but that era in Phillies baseball was basically someone could close their eyes and hit a home run at Citizens Bank Park. The voters of that era only really cared about home run totals.

How could you not know? It was everywhere and historic.

Were you not even following sports last year?

@@OldBenKenobi2318 To be fair, most of the news surrounding Pujols last season concerned his home run chase specifically, not sabermetrics like OPS.

After being around a bunch of star hitters at the Home Run Derby, he really woke up at the plate. I don't think the Cardinals would have won the Central Division without his offensive contributions

@@JobiWan144 Precisely. I did hear about his 700-home run chase, but being no.2 in OPS for a half season is crazy at his age and considering his trajectory

Best hitters have that mindset The ones that do strike out 150+ Stanton vs Judge Judge hits, Stanton homers

Way too many people that live and die by advanced stats that they forget to consider the importance of traditional metrics

@@alphaxiro3845 Traditional metrics all day every day.

@@alphaxiro3845Agreed. And ironically enough, even by advance stats standards, he’s still one of the best ever LMAO

Because he played before any of today’s players

11 but yes

From their hotel, yes

@@RLaidEPeas Ah, for some reason I was thinking he took a public transportation bus.

No he didn’t? Lol he was the same size last season

He looks the same lol

Mike trout is the most unclutch useless waste of space in the history of sports

What do you expect? He played 22 years, was a right handed hitter(slower times to first), was slow, and put the ball in play a lot. If you're able to play long enough to set a record like that it says how valuable they are in other ways. Secondly if you look at his rebound with the Dodgers then with his second stint with the Cardinals it says more about the culture of the Angels than about Albert himself.

@@joerapo "What do I expect"? For 10 years at 25 million a year a lot. He had ONE, what I would call "St Louis" type year for the Angels and the rest were a complete disappointment. He was slower than Prince Fielder on the base paths and killed uncountable rallies. Not sure what Dodger "bounce back" you're referring to? He was there for 85 games, hit a whopping .254 and plugged up a roster spot of a player much more deserving

@@Alex-sf9bo LOL....yeah 10X All Star, 3X MVP, 9X Silver Slugger....What a waste!😂

@@kendallevans4079 As an avid angels fan of 26 years, you’re an idiot if you thought that contract was EVER going to pay itself back LMAO. He was coming off of his 3rd worst STL season, was CLEARLY on the decline, and yet you expected him to continue his .300/30/100 career? Please lol

No one cares but you

They were already separated before she made announcement. They were going through divorce before she learned of the tumor. She made it a story by going public with intent to hurt his character. Looks like it worked…

You reek of jealousy.
