Albert Poo-holes (see the pronunciation guide on his player card) continues to carefully cultivate his newfound public image as a jackass.In an interview on Dominican radio (perhaps he didn’t realize the Americanos could decode his Spanish), Pujols said he didn’t think players from non-playoff teams should win the MVP Award, alluding of course to Ryan Howard of the Phillies. If I really cared about an award voted on by cranky and often obnoxious baseball writers, I might point out to Pujols that his team – the Cardinals – only won 83 games this past season and in almost any other season in any other division almost ever, his team wouldn’t have been within 10 games of the playoffs (including the Phillies division, since the Phillies actually had a better record than the Cardinals but weren't lucky enough to have the Cubs, Brewers, Reds, Astros and Pirates around). But I guess that’s neither here nor there.
I might also point out that it’s not unreasonable to think Howard deserved the MVP, given his .313 average, 58 home runs and 149 RBIs. Those are some ridonkulous numbers by any standard.
I also enjoyed learning that it appears the Pujols is the general manager of the Cardinals as well, as he is quoted in the article as saying "I thought we were going to sign Soriano, but it wasn't possible. We also intended to trade for him during the season, but the Nationals wanted too much for him."
I can just imagine Albert Pujols walking away from the negotiating table with the Nationals, saying “No mas! You want to much for him. I have to go to batting practice.”

Cardinals Suck.
Whaaaaaa! My Yankees didn't win! Whaaaaa!
Sorry, couldn't help but gloat.
Actually, I think it is a good question to ask - do numbers alone make an MVP? If so, Howard deserves it. If not, then maybe someone on a playoff team deserves.
The Cardinals had the second worst win total of any playoff team - but they won the World Series, so they must suck ass.
Ahhh, gloating. Nothing quite like it.
Actually, Paul, I don't think anybody was whining about their team not winning -- this was about something Pujols said. In addition, everyone always thought he was such a great guy and he showed over and over in the playoffs that he's basically a dick.
Gloat all you want, the Cards won it all, no question. But they weren't even the best team in the World Series. They were the best team for a couple of weeks.
J, you're right. He is such a Ty Cobb.
It baffles me to this day how people still hate on the 06 Cards...what you saw in October was the best version of the team we've been trying to present for the last 3 years. We were hurt all year, and when that line up with a healthy Rolen, Eckstein and Edmonds plus the best active player, Albert Pujols, was hot I would take them over most line ups in baseball minus maybe the 500 bagillion dollar yankee line up. I was moderately nervous at facing the Mets line up but the Tigers line up not once worried me. Polanco in the three hole? Laughable...The healthy team you saw this October was pretty much the same team that won 100 games the previous two seasons...Too bad you forgot that...Overall if you want to talke records the Cards have been the best team in baseball the last 3-5 years...deal with it
Last three years count for nothing, my friend. And I actually agree Pujols is as deserving -- probably more -- than Howard for the MVP. But 83 wins is 83 wins and if not for a pathetic division, they wouldn't have been near the playoffs, regardless of how good they were in 2004. You know?
As I said, they absolutely won it and deserve their cred. But this was a seriously flawed team with Jeff Weaver as their number 2 starter. Come on.
