Prince Fielder gets huge deal from the Tigers

[Roman529]

9 years,.......$214 Million. Must be nice to be the Prince today. That's real gauranteed money....not fake NFL money that you never see.

Fixed it for ya.

This is an interesting move by them. Maybe they'll try Fielder at 1B and move Cabrera to 3B. If that doesn't work, Fielder can just be a DH.

214 million is ALOT of money just to DH...

I was only saying that if it didn't work out. He'll probably play 1B.

I know and he will most likely play 1st, Cabrera played 3rd here in Miami

Cabrera said he would move to 3rd

Dude's going to Mo Vaughn himself if he's not careful.

Cabrera at 3rd base?

I don't care how much of a slugging upgrade that is for the Tigs, that is one HUGE liability right there. Cabrera can barely run around the bases much less make anything away that's headed up the gap.

We will see how this works out, but I don't think this was the best place for Fielder to end up.
