Even in a shortened season, Albert Pujols still couldn’t really get things going at the plate. Though he appeared in only 39 games, the veteran saw career-lows across the board.
His average (.224), on-base percentage (.270), OPS (.665) and OPS+ (80) were all the lowest they’ve ever been. He hit only six homers and drove in 25 runs, which would have been on pace to be around the worst of his career as well. In addition to that, his 15.3 strikeout percentage was the highest of his career and his 5.5 walk percentage was the lowest of his career.
