"to discuss next season"...thats kind of an odd way to describe it. Hadn't heard that the Cubs are looking to sign him to a one year deal.

Muskrat:

They wouldn’t mind seeing LaHair duplicate what he did at Iowa in the big leagues.

“They didn’t make any promises,” LaHair said of his meeting with Epstein and Hoyer. “They want to give me an opportunity. It’s something I’m excited about.”

Albert Pujols Rumors: Monday: MLB Rumors - MLBTradeRumors.com

The Cardinals do not expect to get an opportunity to match or beat an offer from another team before Pujols accepts, hears Derrick Goold of the Post-Dispatch.
The Cubs submitted a bid for Pujols, reports Joe Strauss of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. However, MLB.com's Carrie Muskat says a Cubs official denied the report.
The Marlins' reported ten-year bid includes an average annual value that tests or exceeds $20MM, writes Strauss, but it does not include full no-trade protection. The Marlins will meet with Lozano again today. One club executive who spoke to Strauss pegged the team's chances of signing Pujols at 50-50.
ESPN's Buster Olney tweets a reminder that the disconnect in last offseason's negotiations between Pujols and the Cardinals wasn't the length, but the proposed annual value of $22MM.
Not surprisingly, David O'Brien of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution hears that the Marlins would trade Gaby Sanchez if Pujols lands in Miami (Twitter link). Paul Sullivan of the Chicago Tribune thinks the Cubs would try for Sanchez in that scenario.

Where he lands, nobody knows...
