Detroit Tigers Team Notes

Prince Fielder helps now, maybe later.
In a move no one really saw coming, Prince Fielder has reportedly agreed to a nine-year, $214 million deal with the Detroit Tigers.


Everything that held true for the Albert Pujols contract -- great for the team in the short term, very risky in the long term -- holds true for Fielder and the Tigers as well. He'll add a little less value in the next year or two than Pujols will to the Los Angeles Angels, but I like Fielder's chance to hold value deeper into his contract because, at 28 this year, he's five years younger than Pujols. That said, Fielder's still a corner position player with no speed and no defensive value, a player profile that ages very poorly, and he is going to have to get his weight under control if he wants to be a productive player in the back half of this deal, even though there's no financial incentive for him to do so. Partial story.
For Keith Laws' full analysis of the Prince Fielder deal, become an ESPN Insider.
Feel free to add guys.

Miguel Cabrera told Venezuelan newspaper Lider en Deportes that he will move to third base to accomodate Prince Fielder at first base.
"I will come back to the third base, which is my natural position," Cabrera said, via a translated version of the story. "The arrival of Fielder will benefit us." The Tigers could have a pretty terrible defensive alignment, but Cabrera gaining eligibility at the hot corner would be huge in fantasy leagues. He should vault to No. 1 overall status in most formats.
