Albert Pujols
Versions of a possible trade between dominican Albert Pujols and Ryan Howard are in the air, although the most valuable hitter in the National League rule out any possibility of making bags soon.
The gossip started whispering in all the atmosphere of baseball on Monday after the ESPN sports information network reported that the Philadelphia Phillies had intended to ask the St. Louis Cardinals if they would like an exchange between stellar first two bases.
The Pujols criticized those conjectures.
"People fool who likes to write something that is not true and that's all I have to say," said Pujols as the Cardinals visited the New York Mets in an exhibition game.
"If I am going to be traded, they must tell me. Not my job to ask. I have always said, I want to be here, but that does not depend on me," he said. "I think somebody wanted to make fun, but it is very foolish for anyone to take this as something serious."
The Phillies general manager Ruben Amaro son, denied his team had spoken about a possible trade and used the words "lies," "ridiculous" and "irresponsible" to describe the ESPN broadcast information from unidentified sources .
"I really have nothing to say about it," Howard said for its part in the training camp in Clearwater Phillies.
"Truly, I can remember everything that happened when I was in Double A (minor league) _todas these conversations about trade rumors. I know nothing about anything," he said. I do not care anything about that, and if that were the case - which certainly does not know whether it is or not - is what has to be. "
"You have to go and do what you know. If you receive a call and tell you to change then it changed you," he added. "Until that happens, I keep playing for Phillies, I'm still here, so forget it."
However, the pure sound of a trade of Pujols by Howard became the talk of baseball, where fans are burning with desire to see large transfers of players.
