Pujols in serious discussions with Cards about extension

After a holiday break, it appears that talks between the Cardinals and Albert Pujols' agent are on. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported Wednesday that negotiations between the parties "resumed this week" and that the conversations thus far "have taken on a 'positive' tone." That would be significant progress, considering that earlier conversations between the two sides were characterized as something short of actual negotiations. Though some housekeeping remains for the Cards this winter, the club has just about cleared all other major matters off of its docket. The 25-man roster is all but set, with any remaining additions likely coming in the form of Minor League free-agent signings.
