Prince Albert rejects contract offer

It looks like the St. Louis Cardinals and Albert Pujols aren't even close. The Cardinals all-world first baseman has reportedly rejected the latest team offer for a new contract AND reiterated that talks will end Tuesday.

Here's one take from another team's management side.
"I read that he's looking for $30 million a year, and I just can't see how that's going to happen," said Andy MacPhail, Baltimore Orioles president of baseball operations.
Wrong. Somebody will pay, and there will be more than one team in the bidding. It may not be a 10-year contract, but he will get $30M.
