The Los Angeles Angels announced that Albert Pujols underwent foot surgery to amend his right plantar fascia.
This is an injury that Pujols played with during the 2016 season, making him one tough son-of-a-gun. Although, Pujols had a stellar 2016 campaign. His slash line was a solid .286/.323/.457.
Even if you take away the 31 homers and 119 RBI’s Pujols still does a ton for this Halo team. His veteran leadership and playoff experience is a huge plus for the Angels. A Team where Mike Trout has barely tasted the forbidden fruit that is the postseason.
