At 30 years, 222 days-old, the St. Louis Cardinals' Albert Pujols has become the third youngest player to join the 400 home run club. Pujols is preceded only by Alex Rodriguez and Ken Griffey Jr., impressive company for any player, even if you are the best in the world. The All-Star first baseman has not only been the most dominant hitter in baseball, since he burst onto the scene in 2001, but in an era dominated by steroids, Pujols has remained clean. Pujols is tied for 47th on the all-time home run list and will continue to ascend those ranks at a furious pace. By the time Albert is ready to retire, he will more than likely be the all-time home run leader (maybe second to A-Rod).
I don't care what you say Albert, you are a machine.
