9 years $214 mil

I like the acquisition by the Tigers as they now have a very powerful lineup. But, 9 years?!!?!? :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

Better then giving Albert that long of a deal

I think that Fielder will be productive for a longer amount of time, but I actually dislike the Angels deal less because of their media contract. They get $150 mil/year in media revenue now, so they can much more easily afford a bad deal. If you flip flop the teams, I would hate Pujols deal more than I hate the Fielder deal though.

So now you've got Fielder approaching 3-hundy lbs at first and Miguel Cabrera who is probably aboot 270 moving to 3rd. Their defense is going to suck but their lineup is going to be awesome.

I think Prince is underrated defensively at first, but Cabrera at 3rd? YIKES!
