I agree with you though... I hate the Cardinals but Pujols should stay there and be the man. It's not like he's going to run out of money with what they can pay. I appreciate guys who are loyal to teams/citys that are good to them.
Meh. Like UFC Knight said, Pujols has also been good to the Cardinals. He's been paid 14mil(?) a year through his prime up until now. I think it's time for the Cardinals to step up to the plate.

ESPN reported its the Cubs.

You would this Theo would have learned his lesson after seeing the boat anchors he left the Sox with.

For some reason I dont buy that.

They've been after Fielder for less years at a higher annual salary. Doesn't make sense that they would also offer a 31 year old 10 years.

If the report of them being at 10 years and over 200 mill now is true I'd say they have stepped up. I think they'd like to be able to keep a team around him too.

Point taken. I hate the other Miami sports. Thought it could have been an interesting angle, but you never know.

It could also be that hispanic fans don't hate the Miami soccer team as much as it is that they hate MLS.

Ya well, they aren't worried about matching any offers he gets. They are expecting a discount.

You don't think they should expect one?

As I've said I think they should get one.

They've had one for years.

He could have asked for more when he got his last deal as he was really entering his prime. At his age now though the demands are ludicris... imo. We can agree to disagree.

think so? they made the offer and he signed it. just because he played his best, you think they should have paid him more than what he signed for? life don't work that way. i mean, if my boss gives me a giant "bonus" cause i kicked ass at work, that's great. but i really don't expect it.
sec

The Cubs offer is old news though, it was reported yesterday that they'd made an offer that wasn't considered enough (no surprise since they don't want to give the years Pujols wants) why would they go from making an offer to "MYSTERY TEAM" unless its Lozano looking for more leverage?

In case you didn't know, Pujols was kicking ass just as much before signing his previous contract. It didn't just click for him recently.
