Since there aren't that many teams with a big enough vault to open to land Pujols, you have to believe that the Red Sox will go after him hard. If they were to land him, then the number of teams after the 2011 season able or willing to pursue Howard would drop, because unless either the Yankees or BoSox were to want Howard as a DH, both might pass (although I'd tend to doubt it). Even if that type of "pass" were to be the case, then the Cards would need someone to replace Pujols. They might not have a choice but to open up the vault for a native son like Howard, although the Phillies probably could beat back a challenge from the Cards. Most likely, it's the Yankees and Red Sox they're worried about.SportsProfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15180630793608156519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7089867.post-20010058379183950802009-10-24T18:55:25.972-04:002009-10-24T18:55:25.972-04:00Considering his MVP, impressive home run stats, hi...Considering his MVP, impressive home run stats, his World Series ring, and his unparalleled post-season production its fair to assume he will get Alex Rodriguez type money.rakebackhttp://www.rakebackleader.comnoreply@blogger.com
