My understanding is he is an absolute butcher at 3B and will b either OF or DH.

He's a better 3b than LF.

The 9-year contract that Fielder signed with the Tigers in January of 2012 stipulates that he gets a $25 Million bonus if he steals 30 or more bases in one season, and the Rangers have to honor that if it happens.

I honestly believe he will steal 30 times in one season...might not be bases though.

Throughout Nick Markakis' major league career, a lot of female Oriole fans have tried to get him to steal their nachos, too.

Thanks for the info.

A DH. Yeah.

I'll be pretty surprised, since they just acquired a second baseman....

A defensive liability at second. They could move him to first and sign Cano.

They already have someone at 1B, unless they want to trade one defensive liability for another.

You wonder if Dombrowski had this already in the back of his plan when he originally signed Fielder. Use the mega deal to get him to come to Detroit, knowing that you will likely flip him to a team after the front end of the deal and avoid the inevitably painful backside of the deal. The problem for Texas may well be two years down the road and beyond. I wish we had an aggressive ownership with aggressive GMs like Dombrowski or Daniels.

I think they freaked out when Victor Martinez got hurt.
