Dodgers' King Trumps Prince

Looks like Prince Fielder is going to the Tigers, not the Dodgers: The Detroit Tigers and slugger Prince Fielder have agreed to a nine-year, $214 million deal, a source told ESPN.com's Jerry Crasnick. CBSSports.com and Yahoo! each had earlier reported tjhe deal between the Tigers and the free-agent first baseman. Even though he never expected to re-sign Fielder, Milwaukee Brewers general manager Doug Melvin called his departure "somewhat of a sad day," in comments to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. Melvin said the Brewers never made Fielder an offer once the team found out the terms that agent Scott Boras was seeking. "Scott said from Day 1 it was going to be $200 million," Melvin told the newspapper. "When you hear those kinds of numbers, we couldn't get involved in that. All I can say is we had the feeling it was going to be very difficult to keep him." The job's yours, FJL!
