One of the biggest things coming in the 2011 offseason is the impending free
agency of Albert Pujols. He looks to command the biggest contract in MLB
history, even corralling 30 million dollars a year. But who will pay him that

Matt Wieters was supposed to be the next great catcher. What happened?
Wieters, who will turn 24 in May, hit just .249 in '10 with 22 doubles, 11
homers, 55 RBI, and a .319 OBP in 130 games. He did miss 12 games with a
hamstring strain in July, but that obviously was not the root of all of his
