I know there's a new stadium, but I really don't know if they can actually afford him for the next 10 years.

Finals on the 12th over here so ha!

 

Do have a s**tload of homework that's due tommorow morning and a test.. I'm so f**ked.

By stayed, he means stayed with Lozano?

Pujols will be playing either way in the new ballpark on Opening Day...hopefully for the right team

....although, I'm not sure we're the "right" team, in the same way that Miami may not have been the right team for Lebron (although it has been great for the NBA, but that's another story).

@Jon_Heyman: #cardinals do see #marlins as a pujols threat now. Word is miami may take payroll to $100M

I'm really curious to see the terms of the Reyes and Bell deals, at least as far as yearly salaries. Did we hear that Bell's is just $9/$9/$9?

Remember my stadium source? Told me that pujols deal is done. To expect an official announcement soon and a party on Saturday.

 

I'm not joking.

 

 

I can just picture the party on Saturday...

 

Pujols, Reyes, and Hanley yukking it up. Pujols proclaiming, "vamos a ganar no uno, no dos, no tres, no cuatro, no cinco, no seis, pero siete campeonatos!" And Reyes and Hanley laughing their arses off.

Then Hanley continues by saying...

 

No uno, no dos, no tres, no cuatro, no cinco, no seis, no siete...

From @jaysonst 1 NL exec who spoke w/ #Marlins said they scheduled a 2nd meeting 2 try 2 get a clear idea of Pujols interest in coming 2 MIA

 

More @jaysonst Clubs that have talked to #Marlins have come away with the clear impression they are pressing to sign Pujols quickly

I am optimistic, but I have the feeling he won't sign with us. I think we'll give him an offer that will ultimately make him choose between two competitive offers (ours might be the best), but the fact that they want to know whether he's genuinely interested and are starting to press suggests the Marlins are not the leaders here.

The Fish want a quick resolution so they can focus on other free agents.

 

You'd hate to see Pujols drag this out then the Marlins lose out on Buehrle or Prince.. and then all of a sudden he goes back to StL and the Fish are screwed.

I agree with you. I still think we probably don't get him.

How serious are the Miami Marlins about their push to sign Albert Pujols? The team scheduled a second meeting of the day with Pujols' agent, Dan Lozano, for Monday night.

 

The two sides met for about a half-hour Monday afternoon, and a source familiar with the meeting said that session was "very positive, very upbeat." There was no indication of whether the Marlins increased their original nine-year offer in the first meeting. But one NL executive who spoke with the team said they scheduled a second meeting to try to get a clear picture of Pujols' sincere level of interest in coming to Miami and hope to know soon "one way or the other."

 

Clubs that have talked with the Marlins at the winter meetings have come away with the clear impression they are pressing to sign Pujols quickly. And in a public appearance following the team's official announcement of the signing of new closer Heath Bell, Marlins owner Jeffrey Loria did nothing to discourage talk that they have payroll room to sign Pujols, even after reeling in Bell and shortstop Jose Reyes.

 

Loria said the club still has "the possibility of (adding) another player or two." When asked if the Marlins' pursuit of more big-name players was serious, Loria replied: "I'm a serious guy."

I love the last line by Loria: I'm a serious guy." :lol
