When I read it, I didn't believe it. I thought that Jon Heyman of CBSSports.com was screwing with me. The truth of the matter is, it's true. It's being revealed tonight that Prince Fielder is pretty much traded to the Texas Rangers for Ian Kinsler. There are some details that need to be worked out, and sure, it could fall apart in the 11th hour, but for now, it looks like it's just about a done deal.
According to Heyman: "The Rangers and Tigers have agreed on a blockbuster deal to send Prince Fielder to Texas for Ian Kinsler, pending CBSSports.com has learned.
There could be another player involved in the trade as potential well, but that hasn't been confirmed. There may also be money involved as Fielder's $214-million contract is much larger.
Fielder has a limited no-trade clause that includes the Rangers. But it is believed he is willing to accept the deal.
Kinsler's contract details weren't immediately available.
Physicals would likely be needed."
The first major trade is all but complete and it's the biggest one so far. Interesting. What's next?
