45-49.
A) his high is 45, and I'd love to see him top that.
B) he's never had players like this both above AND below him in the lineup
C) as a result of that, he's not going to get the IBB quite as much this year as in some other years where he was (a distant) second to Bonds in that category.... no, this year... Pujols gets the Bonds/Berkman treatment more than Lance does, thankfully.
D) I, too, hope for the triple crown. Or even 2 legs of it, if not all three. I think he can totally take the RBI/Homer sides. The batting average is my only question. He just raised it from 382 to 393 tonight, but he can't always go 3/4, as awesome as this streak has been (case in point: Sunday, where he went 1/4).
