Chicago Cubs turns their focus to Prince Fielder – MLB News
The Chicago Cubs appear to have a renewed interest in signing Prince Fielder. The new manager Dale Sveum is seemingly one of the strong proponents of the idea to possibly have him in the club.
Nonetheless, all this depends on how well the ideas and interests converge at the end. What is clearly known to all and sundry now is that the player intends to get a contract spanning for at least 10 years.
With other reports coming on the surface, it is also one of the interesting developments that the team’s name is among the aspirants intending to go for signing a contract with the player.
The 27-year-old Fielder has an impressive career, aflame with remarkable spontaneity as a slugger, having had .282 average this year. His career average is no less than .298 which points to his ever improving record. This record is what makes Sveum confident
about the player.
“He's one of those special guys who comes around once in a while, once in a lifetime," Sveum said during the Winter Meetings. "He should've played the game in the 1950s and '60s and '70s when guys played every day, they played as hard as they possibly could
every single day.”
Under Sveum, Fielder is for sure going to improve further. The good news for the Cubs is that Fielder’s agent Scott Boras apparently is all open for any talks with any team over the future deal.
"I think any team that wants to get better" will inquire on Fielder, his agent, Scott Boras, said in Dallas last week. "Whether they're a younger team or a veteran team or a team that wants to win now, there are not many teams not in need of a core player
like this.”
With offers already coming Prince Fielder’s way, the Chicago Cubs will surely want a quicker move to sign a contract with him. All the same, changes that have recently swept the Chicago Cubs will naturally increase the appeal of the team to the slugger,
Prince Fielder, making him ever more ready to seriously consider the offer.
