Prince Fielder Offered Big Cash, Lotsa Prizes
From Rotoworld:
Brewers owner Mark Attanasio said offers have been made to Prince Fielder and Ryan Braun that would take them through their first year of free agency. The team had made it clear it was going to happen. Fielder’s deal would be five years and an option for 2013, while Braun’s was six years with an option for 2014. One would think it’d take over $50 million to lock up Fielder for that long. He’ll want something similar to the $10 million Ryan Howard is getting this year in his first year of arbitration in 2009. Figure something like $36 million for the three years of arbitration and then $16 million-$20 million for the season of free agency.
