All right big guy, its a contract year and the Brewers have given you a hefty pay raise and put pieces around you to compete for a WS title. I want to see how he responds.Brewers and 1B Prince Fielder avoided arbitration Tuesday by agreeing to a one-year, $15.5 million contract.
By all indications, this will be Fielder's final season with the Brewers. And he's being paid quite handsomely. The 26-year-old batted .261/.401/.471 with 32 homers and 83 RBI in 2010 and will aim to do even better in 2011 with free agency looming. A number of teams will try for him next winter.
