After Ryan Howard won the MVP:
<!--quoteo-->QUOTE <!--quotec-->Speaking in Spanish at a news conference in the Dominican Republic last week, Pujols was quoted as saying: "I see it this way: Someone who doesn't take his team to the playoffs doesn't deserve to win the MVP."<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Remember his comments about Glavine during the 2006 NLCS?
<!--quoteo-->QUOTE <!--quotec-->After Glavine's Game 1 performance last Thursday, Pujols -- whether in the spirit of competition or out of frustration over the Cardinals' defeat and his 0-for-4 performance -- said <b>Glavine "wasn't that good. He wasn't good at all."</b>
This was right after Glavine had just pitched 13 consecutive scoreless postseason innings. Even so, the next day at Shea Stadium, Glavine told reporters everyone was entitled to their opinion. He didn't address the controversy thereafter.
Pujols' comments didn't sit well in the Mets' clubhouse, even though <b>Pujols said something similar about Padres starter Chris Young in the first round.</b><!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
