In a pretty shocking move, ESPN and multiple other resources are reporting that the Rangers have swapped 2B Ian Kinsler to the Tigers for 1B Prince Fielder. The Rangers will also be receiving $30 million in the deal to offset the cost of Fielder’s contract.
The deal enables the Tigers to ostensibly move Miguel Cabrera to 1B, while adding a great second baseman with power, speed, and on-base ability. Meanwhile, the Rangers get a guy who could threaten 50 home runs again – and who’s extremely durable.
