If they made an exception for Prince, what do they do with Braun next year?<BR/><BR/>Boras probably told him to say all of this. <BR/><BR/>Where does Willis (the mini-horse, not the pitcher) fit in on the Chuckie Hacks compensation system? Is he getting more oats this season? Do mini horses eat mini oats? so many questions.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-275727040983261898.post-17016810784891251732008-03-03T10:43:00.000-06:002008-03-03T10:43:00.000-06:00Plus, if you make exceptions to your pre-arbitrati...Plus, if you make exceptions to your pre-arbitration compensation "system" for Prince, then you don't really have a system any more.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-275727040983261898.post-72463059621698708412008-03-03T10:14:00.000-06:002008-03-03T10:14:00.000-06:00Prince Fielder is a man driven by spite.

A sort of man I like. <BR/><BR/>At best, the Brewers would have to lock him after this season to something along the lines of 4 years, 75M (buying out all arbitration and 1 FA year). It's just not gonna happen. <BR/><BR/>Prince is going to get big money when he becomes a FA, and then he's gone...and I don't blame him. I say we take him year by year, and then dump him at the deadline 4 years from now before he goes FA. He'll already have two World Series Rings, I'd be ok with that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-275727040983261898.post-19012776102688965522008-03-03T10:11:00.000-06:002008-03-03T10:11:00.000-06:00The fact is we have him for a few more years, whic...The fact is we have him for a few more years, which is an eternity in baseball. A couple hundred thousand bucks won't matter much when he's making 8 figures starting next year. If the Brewers are willing to pay market value, there is a good chance he'll stay. He won't be giving any "hometown discount" but I don't think he was planning on doing that before this happened anyway.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-275727040983261898.post-79374033402297266282008-03-03T09:55:00.000-06:002008-03-03T09:55:00.000-06:00My first reaction to the story is that a pissed-of...My first reaction to the story is that a pissed-off Prince is a dangerous Prince.
