I heard a sound bite yesterday about Prince Fielder stating this would probably be his last season in Milwaukee. I guess the implication was that the Brewers would not be able to afford his new contract. I'm not sure where he thinks his contract is going...he made $11 million last year and $15.5 million in 2011.
Anyway...I think he should stay.
Milwaukee is the only team he's played for. They have put together a really nice team that has a serious chance of winning it all this year. Milwaukee is a nice Midwest city, it's not NY or LA. I think their fans would really appreciate a superstar player who doesn't chase the biggest contract he can find.
What do they call this...pie in the sky thinking?
P.S. Same thing goes for Pujols and St. Louis.
