Tigers add Prince

Are they planning to have him and Cabrera alternate at DH ? Neither from what I've seen are super good defensively. Did Miguel play 3rd with the marlins or was it outfield I forget, anyway, he'll like teeing off on soft righty twins pitchers. At least he can pack up and a skip over from Milwaukee to Detroit. This can't help the twins. The money these guys get is completely out of control. Cap that money and put the rest right back into the stadium or state they play in. Ave. superbowl ticket 2K will 90% of us ever have the chance to attend that game it don't look good, tickets at target field are more than our summer rec program or families can now afford, it's too bad really. There is no recession if you're a gifted athlete or have wanted talent. 214 million Prince must just be laughing, I'm overweight, got this attitude, can't tolerate my own father and I'm worth 300 million over the course of my career. You bet I'd take it to, we all would, but mercy.

Prince Fielder is only 27 years old, hasn't even reached his prime yet.

Would you rather have Valencia who can't field and hits 10 HR's a year or Cabrera who can't field and hits 35 HR's a year, hmmm. By the way they are the same age as well. This was a huge plus for the Tigers. How could that small market team who are paying 2 large contracts to two players, same as the Twins, afford that kind of player? Oh, let me guess there is a commitment to winning.

Playing true outside baseball could lower his totals, he definitely will want to prove he can bop better than Cabrera, they could have a healthy friendly competition moving forward. Prince's numbers will reflect on his if he needs any adjusting to AL pitchers. Some guys do and some don't. That comfort of having your 50th at bat against a guy works well for the hitter often and psych's out the pitchers or makes them over think, also I imagine he'll bat behind Miguel so he may get walked a ton if Miggy isn't on base.
