Question

Is it likely that the brewers will re-sign prince fielder after the 2008 season?

Answer 1

Yes they will They have to If they want to stay Competitive  

Answer 2

Can't imagine otherwise. Fielder will have reached arbitration eligibility, so he'll be due a hefty (heh) increase, but he's still a few years from free agency.

Depends on how much of a dolt Melvin wants to be -- go through arbitration, offer a one-year deal, or go for a multi-year deal that buys out one or two seasons of free agency.

I wouldn't sign him past his age 32 season. He's a big, bulky guy; trends show that morphic build has lots of problems after the prime years. After 32, let him be someone else's problem.

Answer 3

There is speculation that the Brewers will try to trade him in the offseason because he will not sign (so far) a long term contract that buys out his arbitration years.  Fielder is a Boras client and is looking for a huge payday that the Brewers may not be able to afford.  I believe he will spend at least 1 more season in a Brewers uniform.

Answer 4

lol....they will

Answer 5

Yes, but it will come at an expensive price.

Answer 6

probably they can get it done...............

Answer 7

Ok ...I'll bite ...why would they need to do this when he can't become a free agent until 2012?
