Brewers open to trading Fielder
The Milwaukee Brewers are open to trading star first baseman Prince Fielder and are willing to listen to offers.
Fielder becomes a free agent following the 2011 season and has already made it clear he wants to hit the open market.
The first baseman intends to go out and take the biggest contract offer he receives, which is way more than the Brewers would be willing to pay.
General manager Doug Melvin won’t trade Fielder unless he gets exactly what he wants in return.
My guess is that teams will be scared away by Fielder’s insistence on testing the free agent market and he will remain in Milwaukee.
