Ryan Howard for Albert Pujols? It May or May Not Have Been “Kicked Around,” Depending Who You Believe

Albert Pujols for Ryan Howard?: “It’s not fully clear whether the Phillies actually have approached the Cardinals with the idea, and even if St. Louis were to seriously consider such an offer, executives with the Cardinals would have to swallow very hard before dealing Pujols, a player widely regarded as the best in the sport.” Philly GM Ruben Amaro called Buster Olney’s report a “lie.” Buzz Bissinger, a St. Louis Cardinals shill fan, called it “fiction.” Can anyone come up with one reason why the Cardinals would entertain this?
