who cares about a player shaves off a couple of years on the resume? So the team pays that much more for two years younger? The print more money Angels?
Pujols was an established star. The Angels knew what they were getting. **** the Angels anyway. We never get to see one of the best players of this generation play on TV or in the playoffs because their front office is incompetent.
We fans got to see the best 11 year run a player has ever had. Better than Ruth, Mantle, Griffey etc. we started to see the aging taking hold. Everyone did. He still was one of the top players of the current game but no longer HOF level of play.
