Albert Pujols left yesterday's game with what looked like a calf injury. He flew back to St. Louis to have tests done. It doesn't sound good. It would be incredible if he avoided the DL. If he's out for an extended period (which is likely), this could be very damaging to your fantasy team.
Update: It's actually not as bad as first thought. Turns out, it's only a strain rather than a tear. They're saying he'll miss at least three weeks, but that's better than missing the whole season.

Down goes Pujols

Moons ago. When Pujols was just a baby hitting 30 homers and 100 rbis in his rookie year. I told my Dad,Mom,Brother, "I'm hungry!" So we went to McDonald's and I got a Happy Meal! :]! But on the way home...I went on to predict that if Albert Pujols is not hindered by any significant injuries a la Jr, that he will one day be crowned the Home Run King of the World. I stand by this notion unless he cries about his elbow/calf like a baby.
He's done a pretty good job of playing through minor injuries in the past. I think he suffered from plantar fasciitis for a while, but didn't really miss any time. Of course, Junior was pretty healthy early in his career, too, so we'll see.
