Katie Woo went on to say Pujols is expected to arrive in Jupiter, Florida within the upcoming week to join the team.


Bob Nightengale of USA Today Sports & Mark Feinsand of ESPN both reporting that the deal is $2.5M per their sources.

Pujols will likely platoon the DH position with recently acquired Corey Dickerson and/or Juan Yepez if the latter breaks camp with the club.


This move may seem like a nostalgia move to some, but the spark that has ignited a lot of Cardinals Nation upon hearing of this breaking news is sure to do the same in the clubhouse with teammates who have the utmost respect for Albert.
