"Albert Pujols' historical accomplishments, both on and off the field, serve as an inspiration to athletes everywhere, and his actions define what it means to be a true superstar."
Pujols inked a massive, 10-year, $210 million with the Angels in '11 after a brilliant career with the STL Cardinals ... but his legendary bat has slowed tremendously over the years. In fact, the start to this season was one of his worst EVER ... he was hitting just .198 in 24 games before his release Thursday.
Pujols will have the opportunity to catch on with another team ... but at 41 years old, this might be it for the MLB star -- who reportedly had been mulling retirement after this season anyway. If it is, in fact, the end ... Pujols should be a no-doubt, first-ballot HOFer -- he's a 3-time MVP and 10-time All-Star with a career .298 batting average.
Worst contract in baseball history...
End? He could still play just not for Angels
What? 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳
This guy was 1 of the greatest baseball players I ever seen play! Great career 1 of the Goats 🐐
