Pujols-Cards but I think Sox make a run
Fielder
Reyes-CA
Sabathia-resigns with Yankees
CJ Wilson-Yankees

Yeah he won't be playing for the metropolitans anymore. It only takes 1 idiot GM to skew the market (see Jason Werth).

Are you pining for the days when Omar Minaya would be that idiot?

hansen {l Wrote}:i don't expect Pujols back in a cardinals uniform...

his agent is looking for something like 200million / 6 years (that is an insane amount of money!) where as the cards offered 200million/9 years. it has been consistently proven that devoting a huge portion of your team's salary is (especially if they are not a pitcher.... gammons had a good article about this some time ago) so in a way it won't be the end of the world if he doesnt sign. it's a shame because if there are two players left that are "franchise" players- think of a team and you immediately think of that player then it would be jeter and pujols- one of them may not spend his entire career in that team's uniform. pujols is 31 and realistically his best days are probably behind him. he has a 3 year downward trend in stats (although he was injured this year, however) and he's susceptible to injury due to his age and his style of play.

cvilleagle {l Wrote}:The big question is if not the Cardinals then who? He plays 1B, which means Sox would have to somehow juggle the position with Gonzalez - seems unlikely. Yankees are good at that spot (Good being a relative term, but I mean, they can't just dump Tex.) So you won't have the two biggest spenders bidding. Cubs, Rangers, Angels, maybe the Mets, I guess (Of course, the Mets may be totally broke). Just a question of how much of a bidding war he can get going.

Sox need to focus on a starter and building middle relief, and resigning Papelbon.

This sounds crazy, but DH Pujols.

this makes absolutely no sense. he's a gold glove 1B (winning in '06, '10). why would you pay all that money for him to take 3-4AB per game?

Madson is a Boras client and looking for like a zillion dollars, which he'll probably end up getting.

I quoted the wrong post. I was referring to Papelsmear.
