Albert Pujols Bidding War Getting Crazy


You knew it eventually would. The Marlins have now made a 10 year offer for $200+ million. The Cubs are said to be involved, but just enough to drive up the price as they have their eyes on Fielder. The Cardinals are expected to make a counter offer today for Pujols.

Word is the only thing holding up a deal with the Marlins is the Marlins accepting a full no trade clause. If I had to guess I bet Pujols ends up getting 10 years $250 million with a no trade clause (to stay with Cardinals), which is just fucking silly and showing once again the MLB really needs some kind of salary cap.
