Setting The Over/Under on Albert Pujols Home Runs In 2012

Albert Pujols has been off to a terrible start; that much is obvious. But views on how we will look back on Albert's 2012 in years to come are varied, with some saying he is already done, some saying he will still be the MVP of the American League, and even Jim Edmonds (Jim Edmonds! Where has he been?) chipping in on the topic.

More important than trying to predict how Pujols' season will play out, however, is trying to make money off successfully doing so. With that in mind, we are setting our hypothetical Over/Under of Albert Pujols 2012 Home Runs at 29.5.

What do you think? Over or Under?

In Pujols' 11 full seasons in the Majors (before the start of this season) he has averaged roughly 6.5-7 HR's per month, with a pretty even spread across the months of the season. With 5 months left in the 2012 season, it's very reasonable to expect Albert to get back to somewhere near this level of production, and throw up close to 30 HR's after this horror start.

But will he get there?

Who Are We?

Error: Operator is a blog. Like so many others these days, we post stuff that we like.

We don't pretend to create everything on this site - far from it. In fact, we wish we created everything on this site, but we aren't that clever, and don't have that much time. We don't intend to copyright anyone's work - if we post something on this site, we enjoyed it, and we hope you might too. We'll always try to post credit to the original source, but this is the internet. Seriously, who came up with this? Anyone?

If the handful of views we are pulling is rubbing you and your blog the wrong way, that's fine. Get in contact with us and we will gladly give you the three cents you might have earned with Google Ads if you had those views instead. Or we'll take the post down - whichever you like.

Sometimes, we will post a lot. Other times, not so much. Life is like that. Sometimes, we post well-thought out, detailed posts we would be proud to show our mothers. Other times, we find a video of a dog pooping on a baby and cannot stop laughing until we show someone.

If you don't like what we do, then you're in control - go check out someone else's page. If you think you can do better (you probably can), then nothing's stopping you. And, on the off chance you like something you see, we love hearing about that too.
