Pujols is currently in the final season of a 10-year, $240 million contract, which he signed back in 2011.During Friday's installment of "Nothing Personal with David Samson," David Samson weighed in on Pujols' tenure with the Angels and believes it is a "failure.""The way you judge a Sam Vigneault Kids Jersey tenure is based on his performance and your team's performance," Samson said. "If you go back and look, it's an absolute, abject failure. It's not me saying to you that isn't a first-ballot Hall of Famer.

The fact that the Angels waited this long to designate him is only because the owner and president could not find a soft landing."Earlier this week, that Pujols was upset that he wasn't in Wednesday's lineup against a left-handed pitcher.
