Love this deal for the tigers.

CFP wrote:I mean, listen, I really get it, you're trying to dump Fielder because his contract is generally an albatross. But he's not awful, and you're taking on $57M for Kinsler over the next four years plus a $5M buyout in the fifth year, and he's got a lot to prove to say that he's not on the decline.


They want to free money to sign Scherzer methinks

Pretty sure a lot of money is involved, which makes this insanely stupid.

62 mil guaranteed to Kinsler plus Prince money? Why not, you know, just keep Prince

I'd imagine Texas is getting a bunch of money from Detroit?

Texas on the other hand gets Prince, moves Andrus to 2B and starts Profar at SS.
This is a neat deal.

Source: Detroit will be sending $30 million to Texas in the Prince Fielder deal.

I would assume Profar at 2B

And they still have to pay 174mm to Prince. Idk about this deal for them, Kinsler must not have been too marketable

tigers end up saving $81MM as a result. think it's a great deal for them. they probably re-sign scherzer now.

Good deal for both, great for DET. They can move Cabrera to a position where his defense doesn't kill you.

$138m after you deduct the 30.

Personally, I think its a pretty terrible deal for Detroit. They are now paying almost $100m for Kinsler, who is a declining, overrated player with stats that are built on volume. He's basically Omar Infante at this point.

Think of all the WAR's they'll save by moving Miggy from 3rd.
