Diedre Pujols explains decision

ESPN.com news services

Albert Pujols' wife Diedre, in an interview with a radio station with ties to
the former St. Louis Cardinals slugger, said the couple was prepared to take
less money to stay in St. Louis, but were greatly disappointed when the team
initially offered him a five-year deal.

Thursday, Albert Pujols signed a 10-year, $254 million offer with the Los
Angeles Angels that contained no deferred money, as well as a 10-year
personal services contract following that deal. The Cardinals' last offer to
Pujols was for 10 years and $210 million, with $30 million deferred.

"The offer that people have seen on television I want to tell you what,
listeners especially, had that offer been given to us with a guarantee, we
would have the (Cardinals) bird on our back," Diedre Pujols told 99.1 Joy FM,
a St. Louis-area Christian station that received some of its initial funding
from Albert Pujols.

Diedre Pujols, speaking with interviewer Sandi Brown, who is her friend, said
the couple initially had no plans to ever leave St. Louis or the Cardinals,
the only team the first baseman had ever played for.

"When it all came down, I was mad. I was mad at God because I felt like all
the signs that had been being played out through the baseball field, our
foundation, our restaurant, the Down Syndrome Center, my relationships, my
home, my family close," Diedre Pujols told the station. "I mean, we had no
reason, not one reason, to want to leave. People were deceived by the
numbers."

She indicated the key moment was the Cardinals' initial offer of five years
and $130 million.

"When you have somebody say 'We want you to be a Cardinal for life' and only
offer you a five-year deal, it kind of confused us," Diedre Pujols said.
"Well, we got over that insult and felt like Albert had given so much of
himself to baseball and into the community ... we didn't want to go through
this again."

Diedre Pujols told the station the negative reaction in St. Louis over her
husband's decision to sign with the Angels has been striking.

"Albert has never lied. People are like 'Oh, we thought we knew who he was.'
Well, we thought we knew who they were," she told the station.

"The city of St. Louis has absolutely been deceived and I have never seen
hatred spread so fast and I understand why," she added. "Let me say that
Albert and I never, not one time, ever made plans to leave this city."

Diedre Pujols also said she had no ill will toward the Cardinals or owner
Bill DeWitt and that she understands the fans' frustration with her husband's
decision.

"It's just like God," she said at the end of the interview, "to put us on a
team called the Angels."

推 adam323:明年墊底吧　真沒誠意
推 WLR:紅雀知道Pujols要的是怎樣長度的合約，一開始開5年就代表紅雀
→ WLR:認為Pujols的價值，不值得紅雀跟他簽長約、承擔長約風險
→ WLR:對Pujols來說，這表示紅雀已經暗示了不想留他的立場，之後的加
→ WLR:碼與其說是想挽回，不如說是對球迷的交代
推 CGary:之前還有一個八卦是紅鳥知道唯一競爭者馬大魚退出之後,又砍
→ CGary:了價, 紅鳥站在球團角度開這價不為過, 那麼就別把輿論說成球
→ CGary:員不給hometown discount, 我們盡力了之類的, 好聚好散唄:P
→ CGary:其實我也覺得紅鳥合理可以開的價大概就是6-7年150~180M上下
→ CGary:但如果這價屬實, 有一點比較糟的是Holliday是7年120M,Pujols
→ CGary:我沒記錯跟Pujols是前後天生日(差一天還兩天),怎麼球團不覺

推 vata:季初開打前肯推出長約, 到了季後一開始只推出五年合約
→ vata:前後態度差很大一定是個讓pujols決心走人的因素
→ CGary:不是丟個大合約就是尊重 但不尊重可以從某些地方看得出來...
→ CGary:像我是小球隊的球迷 我很清楚甚麼叫做球團採用溫情手段留人
→ CGary:但紅鳥實在是一直想辦法把普神送出門 這就真的不是端合約這
→ CGary:麼單純的一個問題了...
推 maikxz:對 關鍵就在紅雀談合約方式不像是在想要留普神 雖說到最後
→ maikxz:開到10年約 從最早談延長到真進FA過程中態度 是關鍵
推 GianniC:紅雀本來就不值得留戀  第一張合約就看得出來...
推 GianniC:怎麼看也覺得天使老闆有誠意太多了...
推 zippy:球團在商言商，就不要怪球員為自身打算....
推 kauw:紅雀大概也覺得沒差了 反正用普神拿到兩次了 賺夠了..
→ kauw:小合約簽到賺到 簽不到就讓他走..
推 dimko:紅雀開這種價 對照他給紅雀的 PUJOLS沒留下個PUJOLS魔咒已經
