I was watching the Pirates feed today and when Pujols came up with 2 men on, they were talking about how dangerous he is. I couldn't help but think how wrong they were. I hate being so negative about things, but whenever he comes up with men on base, I fear the worse. It sure seems like the Angels hit in to a huge amount of double plays so I decided to look it up......
...53! Which leads the MLB. On top of that, the player with the most GIDP in the MLB is.....
...Albert Pujols! Which doesn't seem all the surprising being how slow he is. Pretty sure he could ground into a double play with no one on base at the snail speed he runs.
