Tigers get their Prince and the Giants give Lincecum a giant two-year deal

Prince Fielder is a Detroit Tiger for the next 9 seasons at a price tag of 214 million dollars and he will be a beast in the middle of the lineup with Miguel Cabrera and will be a great one-two punch especially if Cabrera stays on the non-drinking track. So Prince will be playing for the same team that his father Cecil played for and had his most productive seasons hitting 51 homers in his first season and 44 homers in his second season as a Tigers and the two Fielders are not on speaking terms right now.

With the Tigers getting the Prince they are going to be the odds on favorite to win the AL Central as the Chicago White Soxs, Cleveland Indians, Minnesota Twins, Kansas City Royals are a couple of steps behind the Tigers and they may run away from the rest of the division.

In the other news Tim Lincecum has been resigned by the Giants for two years and 40.5 million dollars so the Giants may have a bounce back season with their two-time CY Young award winning Ace on the mound every five days.

The gap between the haves and haves not gets even bigger
