Who is next player to hit 500 hr?
Probably Albert Pujols. As of games played on August 18, 2011 ... the active MLB leaders in home runs are Vladimir Guerrero and Chipper Jones who have 446 home runs and Albert Pujols who has 438 home runs. Vlad (36 years old) and Chipper (39 years old) are a little long in the tooth and have seen their better days. It is doubtful that either will reach 500. Albert is 31 years old and has several years left in his prime so, barring disaster, Albert will probably reach 500 home runs early in the 2013 season.
