Albert Pujols helped encourage Jim Edmonds to give baseball a chance again after taking off the 2009 season.
"He said I was crazy not to try it," Edmonds said.
Three months after Pujols and Edmonds discussed a return, the outfielder is with the Brewers.
"I hate to see him playing against us in the division," Pujols said. "He's always going to be a Cardinal forever."
