Pujols to Angels: 10 years, $250 large

The leader for Prince and really the only team that has thought about giving him what he wants is Seattle. I read the Nationals pulled out because they want other positions and the Cubs dont want to give him that amount of money, but I'm still hoping they can land him.

Seattle is a playa. Wouldn't surprise me if he's Miami's plan B. Back to MKE? You're kiddin', right?

Lost in the shuffle, they added CJ Wilson today too.

Read today that the Angels signed a $3 billion tv deal to pay for all of this.  If they win a World Series, it will be worth the deal.  If they do not, then it will not be.  The DH was created for 41 year old hitters.  With the Dodgers finally getting out of their malaise, maybe the Angels owner wanted to make a big statement before the Dodgers get good again?

Fielder will get close to $200 million.  Agree with 4ever on this.

Didn't some guy here try to tell everyone how the Angels were so much different than the Yankees or Red Sox because they relied mainly on home grown talent? Pujols, Wilson, Abreu, Wells, Hunter, Haren...etc.
