I do think that this might be in part because Pujols will likely be gone...inside info that they don't intend to pay Albert what he's really worth?"Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake."

I've often mocked "The Genius" for his unconventional tinkering, and suggested that his success has had a lot to with picking good situations for himself, but I will say that, during his tenure with The Cardinals, he almost always got the most out of his teams, no matter how much talent he was given to work with. His teams have always exuded professionalism and mental toughness, and hung in there when other teams might have given up the ghost. This year was no exception - his team battled through the loss of Adam Wainwright and some crazy bullpen upheaval and positioned themselves to kick in the door when Atlanta left it open for them in September.

"The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean so many different things."
"The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "which is to be master - that's all."

yep, Tony is smart, and never missed an opportunity to make sure you knew it, but like Sheep said, he always seemed to get the most out of his players.
