Albert Pujols out of Angels' lineup against Orioles
Los Angeles Angels designated hitter Albert Pujols is not starting against the Baltimore Orioles on Wednesday afternoon.
Pujols has gone a brutal 1-for-25 (.040) over his last six contests, so a day off will hopefully get him back on track. Mike Trout will start at DH for the Angels while Ben Revere mans center field.
For the season, Pujols is slashing .227/.270/.376 with 17 home runs and 68 RBI in 404 plate appearances (104 games). numberFire's models project him to record a .250 average with 6 homers and 25 RBI in 181 plate appearances over the remainder of the year.
