Kendrys Morales Out for Year (Again)

[NCCubFan]

He needs more surgery (this time to clear out scar tissue from last year's operation) and will not play this year. Talk about a costly home run celebration.

Bad news for us. A healthy bounce-back for Morales may have taken them out of the running for Pujols.

[expletive] 'em. The Cubs can roll with anyone when it comes to offering Pujols the money he wants.

 

Plus it's Pujols. I doubt the Angels would be like "naw, we're cool, we don't want that guy." Morales would have had to have a hell of a bounceback year for that.

Well yeah, we're getting Pujols regardless, but this might cost us an extra 2M/Y

That's gotta be pretty disappointing. Another year gone from the prime of his career. If he has a strong 2012 he will still make plenty of money.

I feel bad for the guy. I hope he comes back strong.

Carlos Pena for Mike Trout. Make it happen!
