It's weird timing to me. We still have Albert locked up for the next 2 seasons. Why would we even consider trading him at this deadline?

Not to mention, trading Pujols would pretty much kill Mo's career. Can't envision a scenario in which that happens.

Frankly, I just wish they'd lock him up now and be done with it. The speculation and bullshit "stories" like this...I can't do that for the next 2 years.

This is why its insane. They have the same contract length. Howard's is *more* money. - TFox Mar 15, 07:59 1
- It also gives the Phillies leverage in renegotiating with Howard. -- nm - David Mar 15, 08:03
Johan went through the same thing. The difference is that the Cards are considered at worst the second best team in the NL at the start of the season. -- nm - David Mar 15, 07:50
