Albert Pujols Wants To Stay With The Cardinals

albert-pujolsAlbert Pujols has come out and said the he would like to finish his career with the St. Louis Cardinals. Pujols, who is currently the longest tenured Cardinal, said this to MLB.com’s Matthew Leach:

“Do I want to be in St. Louis forever? Of course,” Pujols said. “Because that city has opened the door to me and my family like no other city is ever going to do. I don’t want to [go to] any other city, but if that time comes I’m pretty sure wherever I go they are going to do the same way — hopefully, open the doors. But I don’t think it’s to be anything compared to St. Louis.

“People from other teams want to play in St. Louis and they’re jealous that we’re in St. Louis because the fans are unbelievable. So why would you want to leave a place like St. Louis to go somewhere else and make $3 or $4 more million a year? It’s not about the money. I already got my money. It’s about winning and that’s it. It’s about accomplishing my goal and my goal is to try to win. If this organization shifts the other way then I have to go the other way.”
