Re: Pujols Contract talks over, Where can he go???
I am 90% of the thinking that Pujols and the Cardinals will get the job done somehow.
If not, the other 10% of me can't help but see the Phillies working out a deal to add another superstar to the team -- and at the same time deal Ryan Howard to his home town of St. Louis to replace Pujols.
Course that 10% of me comes from years of disappointment as a Mets fan!!!

Re: Pujols Contract talks over, Where can he go???
As far as I know AGon is a Free Agent himself after this season unless he signs an extension.Boston has A-Gon,
Maybe the Cardinals think they get him for their max offer after he gets stonewalled after the season by all the teams you mentioned. Expect the Nationals to go after him for 5 to 8 years as they are now in spending mode.
Here's the rub I have always heard since the days Alberto slid in the Draft that many GMs felt he is a few years older than his Driver's License and Birth Certificate says. Don't know if that is true but if he isn't 31 and really is 34 (?), does it make sense to sign him for more than 4 to 6 years?
Also, do the Cardinals know something we don't know? This will be the story of the year for sure.Leave a comment:

Re: Pujols Contract talks over, Where can he go???
There have been talks about the Cards trading Pujols for any of those guys you mentioned. The Cards would get a first baseman with a contract that they could live with and Albert would go to a team that could pay him what he wants. As a Yankee fan I wouldnt mind seeing him in pinstripes
, but Teixeira has a no trade and I'm sure he would nix any such trade.
That being said, I'm sure he and Cards will get something done.Leave a comment:

I have no idea how the cardinals can fumble on this, and have no idea where Pujols thinks he can go..... Boston has A-Gon, We have Tex, Angels have kendry, Phils have Howard...... slim market that needs a first baseman
