I think it's somewhat humorous that the PD is throwing up headlines like that and this is still all based on "sources".

Modern day twitter journalism. Wow.

I just wanna know how Kolten Wong had it all figured out before anyone else. He should quit baseball and go into reporting.

You guys are all too nice. He's a greedy prick. He did turn his back on St. Louis, and now instead of sweeping all the rumors in the past that he's been an [expletive] to fans, team mates, and others can come out. Everyone has always given Albert the benefit of the doubt because he's our guy, but where there is smoke there is fire and I believe everything I've heard about him being a dick. Good bye dick.

The Marlins deal might have been more because of taxes, but I don't think Albert cared. It's the status of being able to say he's getting $25-26 million per year for 10 years. Not $22 million per year.

If it happens on the West Coast, ESPN will rarely acknowledge it. Therefore, will it have ever really occurred?

:P

any of you people here would have done the same thing...Don't kid me you that you would decline 260 Million.

Good Luck Albert...Always will be a fan of you and will continue to support you and thanks for a great decade of baseball.


But....Go Cardinals always..when we play you, we will kick your ass

So, I pulled this based on the COL.

They acknowledged Bonds, and he was playing on the West Coast. :)
