MLB: Prince Fielder Cannot Be Happy

Maybe Braun was a little more reasonable when it came to money.
 
I would think he was more reasonable he is making only 5.6 million a year. That is nothing for a guy who will hit 25+ HR's and have around a 100 RBI's each year.

He took a HUGE hometown discount.
 
8 Years is a nice little guarantee for a guy with less than a year of MLB time. The Brewers wouldn't even go to the table with Prince, so how would they know what he was wanting?
 
The thing is, that was a smart move with Braun, provided he learn's to play defense. I think he could have gotten more than that on the market, with his prodigious power.

The smart move is that they avoid arbitration, where he could make alot more. They still have him for two more years at the adjusted minimum before arbitration. It's actually only about a three year extension...
 
The problem isn't Fielder, the problem is Rosenhouse (sp?) his agent. His agent doesn't want to go to the table to negotiate. Its not all the brewers fault here.
