Pujolsapalooza: Multiple Reports - 10 Year Contract with Angels

[Miamarlin21]

Wooo!

[Bobbob1313]

Exciting.

I kind of don't want it to happen, but exciting nonetheless.

[Big Z]

If the Reyes deal is close, why meet with Pujols?

[MiamiHomer]

Doubling payroll obviously.

[THE_REAL_MIBS]

That would use all the money we have to spend though. Reyes and Pujols for around $20 million a piece would take us over $90 million in payroll. That would eliminate getting a starter unless we trade Nolasco to save payroll and get a player like Gio who is cost controlled.

[Big Z]

Lol, I think if anything we get to $100 million.

If we sign Reyes (let say for 17.5) and trade for Gio instead of signing Buehrle, how much do we have left for Pujols?

[Beef]

Ehe, I hope we get Reyes and Pujols just so Mibs can complain OH NOOOOOO WE USED IT ALL!!! ITS ALL GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONE

[Chewford]

We're gonna pay Pujols in won.

[THE_REAL_MIBS]

We're not going with a $100 million payroll. The general consensus from reputable sources (not the Twitter guys) is $85-$90 million.

And Beef, why would I care if we only get two players? It's everyone else that's having fantasies about filling mulitple positions with top of the line (and top of the budget) players.

[Bobbob1313]

Lol, I think if anything we get to $100 million.

If we sign Reyes (let say for 17.5) and trade for Gio instead of signing Buehrle, how much do we have left for Pujols?

With no other changes? Probably $110.

[Chewford]

We could almost buy 2 copies of Skyrim with that $110!

[Big Z]

So we are the first to meet with Reyes, Buehrle and Pujols. Wow.

[Beef]

You know what they say

[Valid]

You know what they say

The early bird gets the worm?

[Beef]

Ohhh, some do say that.

I guess I meant Mibs. She says that first is the worst.
