He's not going to get Pujols money, but with Scott Boras representing him, an 8-year, 150 million dollar deal sounds about right. Supposedly, those kind of offers just werent there for Fielder. Doubt many would be willing to ante up that kind of deal for Fielder? Not worth it imo. Doubt he sees any offers past 5-6yrs and $120mill, it could happen though. Just dont see it, imo. Alot of folks thought Pujols would get a $200+ mill deal, 3-4 teams offered hkm $220 and he turned them all down. Not unreasonable to believe hed get Arod type money? I thought atleast $240 would have to do it. Guys better than AFraud, he got almost as much, which was pretty much right in line.

It works out for the Cards, why? They dont have to spend $250 mill on a guy, theyll most likely trade anyways 3/4 years dtr, anyways. They dont have to worry about unloading that horrible contract. They can use the $saved, to get miltiple players, who can help them.

Also, nice job signing McCloth. Yep. But, they didnt spend alot on either, they can still go out &get a few more bats if they need to. Lots of low cost guys thay can help them, and they get them for cheap. Kinda pissed my Tigs didnt go after Bedard more aggressively, he wouldve looked nice in the 5th starter spot.

Fielder is younger than Pujols, so in 4-5 yrs, he will be Pujols, and this is it for him. Fielder will get that, because he had a monster walk year. But he will deliver for whatever team he ends up with As far as contracts being not traded, thats what they said about A-Rods 10yr $252 million from the Rangers, yet he was traded, and even Vernon Wells contract Last edited on Fri Dec 9th, 2011 08:32 pm by mike3775 |
