Id have to agree with you, pujols doesnt have the market of boston and NY fighting for him he should stay in St. Louis only other team i can see making a serious bid is the cubs.

To me the legacy of going down as either the 1a. or 1b. guy in St. Louis with Musial is worth more than the extra 2 or 3 million per year that Chicago might offer. I mean really is your life that much better making 30 million a year over 27?
I also think that if he stays in St. Louis his legacy as a top 5 player all-time is helped. May seem silly but I do believe that him spending his whole career in St. Louis will reflect better on him than if he jumps to another organization.
And as Sylvan said about Florida not sure anyone seriously bidding on him offers a better shot at the play-offs/WS than St. Louis.
