figured this would be a good section for thoughts on the hot stove. Obviously Pujols and Prince are the two big fish but lots of movement will effect our teams.
today the Rangers signed Joe Nathan wow great move I've always liked Joe but this also means Feliz goes to the rotation and Minny hands the ball to Capps ?

Everyone around town is freaking out that Pujols might leaves ![::)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/eyesroll.png) especially after he got that offer from the Marlins ;D. I'm so tired of hearing it. I've been saying it for over a year, he's not going anywhere all the big money teams have there 1B locked up for big long term deals. So if he leaves it will be because winning really doesn't matter to him or the cards secretly don't want him back and refuse to up their offer a couple mill. I hoping the Cardinals can trade Westbrook and bring in Buehrle, he's already said he'd play here on the cheap.

I can't take it anymore!!!! I was certain Pujols was staying but with Loria going ape shitte I'm seriously worried. I feel like I drank a case of beer and I'm standing in line at the stadium for the bathroom ![:o](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/shocked.png) Hope there's some resolution soon.

hearing from insiders that the Marlins offered a 10 year deal, ironing out the no trade clause (because Loria will deal everyone), but they went up to a meeting a few minutes ago

Clause or no clause i think it will be a bad deal for him. no clause Florida looks to dump him in a few years a la Texas w ARod. If he gets the no trade he'll be stuck there while they go thru multiple rebuilds.

Here is what I posted on Facebook:
"Don't do it Pujols. DO NOT do it. There are things in the world more important than money. STL appreciates you for who you are as a person, how your stature is able to bless the community, and how you embody the spirit of our great city and fan base. Your baseball prowess is secondary to us."
I just hope he gets the message in time.

Might take me awhile to get over it. I'm kinda mad at both sides. Cards knew what is gonna take and in my opinion they never really tried as for Albert it really was about the money all along.

im glad we didnt pay him that 10 year/25 per year deal. It would be nice for the next 3-5 but It would have ruined us over the next decade and maybe beyond.
