Buehrle is from St. Charles, MO and grew up a Cardinals fan. As bob² alluded to, Buehrle has said he wants to pitch for his hometown team, and he is also going to be 33 heading into next year.
There are 2 legitimate suitors for Buehrle, the White Sox and Cardinals.Amy Adams, AKA Cinnamon MuffLogan Morrison: "If baseball didn't exist, I would probably be ... like a curler. Or a hairstylist."

That's kind of like saying Miguel Cabrera can play 3 positions.
Albert Pujols can play one position.
Well, he can probably play LF because almost anyone can, but he hasn't since 2002 and he's not going to wherever he signs, so it's utterly irrelevant.
I don't think I'd sign either of them, but it's an interestingquestion. Albert may age better, but they aren't on the same age scale. The question is will Albert age better from 31-38 than Prince will from 28-35? I'm not sure what the answer is, given that Albert's simply a far better player already.Last edited by Bobbob1313; 08-20-2011, 04:26 PM.poop

Anyone can play any position they want, doesnt mean they would be good at that position. Considering how long Pujols has been at 1B, you probably forget that he was much like Cabrera was...just shoehorned in wherever to get his bat in the lineup no matter his defensive liabilities.Amy Adams, AKA Cinnamon MuffLogan Morrison: "If baseball didn't exist, I would probably be ... like a curler.

I didnt say he was a defensive liability at 1B. He however wasnt good in LF or at 3B, but played those positions to get his bat in the lineup.
So comparing him to Cabrera defensively, in this instance, is very appropriate.Amy Adams, AKA Cinnamon MuffLogan Morrison: "If baseball didn't exist, I would probably be ... like a curler. Or a hairstylist."

Bobbob, you do know that Pujols played 3B this year, right?
In this super fantasy world, I'd rather have the guy who can go somewhere else, semi-competently, in a pinch rather than the DH who has to play a position because it's the NL.
I reiterate though, I think I'd rather have Prince over the short term.
