Tigers Sign Fielder to Nine-Year, $214 Million Deal, CBSSports.com Reports

The Detroit Tigers signed free-agent first baseman Prince Fielder to a nine-year contract worth $214 million, CBSSports.com reported today, without citing where it got the information.

Fielder, 27, hit .299 with 38 home runs and 120 runs batted in last season for the Milwaukee Brewers, who won the National League Central division title. He also finished third in voting for the league’s Most Valuable Player award for the second time.

The Tigers last week lost four-time All-Star Victor Martinez for the season with a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee. The Tigers were 95-67 last year behind American League MVP and Cy Young Award winner Justin Verlander. Detroit lost to the Texas Rangers in the AL championship series after eliminating the New York Yankees in the first round of the playoffs.     More Read
