When I read this, I nearly laughed out loud.
There is an article out right now at Yahoo Sports telling of what teams could possibly be interested in signing---read: paying for--Albert Pujols, currently and rather famously of the St. Louis Cardinals play for their team.
On the list?
The Kansas City Royals.
Yeah, ain't that a hoot?
Here's what they had to say:
• Kansas City Royals – Pujols went to high school and college in Kansas City and the Royals have payroll to work with. But there’s a difference between having some money to spend and having enough of it to satisfy Pujols, as owner David Glass explained to the Kansas City Star this week. With Billy Butler(notes) established at first base and top prospect Eric Hosmer(notes) about to join him, the Royals have more pressing needs elsewhere.
Admittedly they put us as a "long shot" but please, as though David Glass with his cheapskate, tightwad ways would pay for a player of this caliber.
Or give a damn about winning.
