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.

By the way is his restaurant on fire yet and that hideous statue torn down?

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

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

and please don't sign Fielder Mo. We will get by.

So, I pulled this based on the COL.

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