    We'll take Dave Duncan as our new pitching coach.
    I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me.

    I had a feeling this would be the case. Nothing better in sports than going out on top. Pujols will have less of a reason to stay now.

    Good point. Just going by Pujols' demeanor it is clear he is ready and willing to leave.

    Yeah, it sounded like win or lose, he was done.

    I think his coaching days are done, but I would be shocked if he didn't do analysis for some network at some point...

    Agreed, baseball is better off without the manager at the face of the steroid era. Good riddance!
