Lots of rumors out there that Fielder has signed with the Rangers. Waiting for confirmation from a legit source.

What? Twitter is blowing up saying he signed with Nationals, although I haven't see someone who is a reliable source say it yet.

Both rumors got started on twitter accounts by people calling themselves experts with no media, or MLB credentials. Not sure I'd believe anything just yet although I'm quite a jaded fan after the whole Darvish experience

WHERE?!?!?!? I'm beaming right now, you've made my morning, and if I find out this is an elaborate prank to build me up just to knock me down . . . I will find you, and I will cut you!
Edit: The twitterverse seems to think Washington

Nothing confirmed yet. Now it looks like the O's are getting involved.

Yeah, sounds like the O's, Nats and Rangers are all serious about signing him.

Jon Heyman of CBS is reporting that the Tigers have signed Price Fielder to 9 year deal worth 200 mill plus.

It sounds like it's $214 million, 23.78 a year until he is 36 years old.
That's crazy.

Sounds like Prince will play first, Miggy moved to mostly likely 3rd.

Also Lincecum and Giants have agreed to a 2 year - 40 million dollar contract that takes him through arbitration years.

I think it is a good move for the Tigers to sign him and who cares if you overpay a bit with the money they have but seems odd to go to that length when it appears nobody else is in that range.
Still you need good players to win in the MLB and Fielder is a good player now and likely for the next 7-10 years at least, especially in the AL with the DH.

I would think that one of them could just DH.
Unless they are dumb enough to let their ego prevent them from DH'ing.

I believe in the Jays.

So I now have to watch the Blue Jays pitch in Detroit to a big fat power hitter named Fielder... Woo Hoo! World Series Victory in 2015 if history is repeating itself!

For this year I bet one will DH most of the time unless Miggy is in real good shape and can handle third. When V-Mart comes back late this year or next year, he has to DH so I'm betting they're hoping Miggy can transition over to third easily.
