(Just a fair warning, get ready for a bunch of bahooey) Here is a condensed, explanation-less list of my free agent predictions in early November: Albert Pujols to St. Louis Prince Fielder to Chicago (Cubs) CJ Wilson to Washington Jose…
People have stressed the fact that Prince Fielder signed a ridiculous contract. So what if it’s ridiculous? The guy is still under 30 (27). He absolutely rakes. He might be the best power hitter in the game. And he isn’t…
The Tigers will Sign Prince Fielder ……… Holy schnikies!!! The Tigers signed him, they didn’t commit “fiscal insanity”. They jumped in at the last minute as the darkhorse team to get the big fish. Much like their acquisition of Miguel…
