Fielder isn't playing the lottery. He is keenly aware that he is going to win lottery type money, an awareness that no lottery winner has ever had. I guess it all comes down to character. Sprewell made it easy early in his career to see that he had highly questionable character. I just don't see Prince the same way. He has first person, real life experience of what happens when you are careless with large amounts of money. I can guess that Prince doesn't want to see his kids get served papers for his father at a minor league game should they ever make it, like he was for his father. This is a guy who brought his kids and their Monsters Inc toy out for the postgame interview. All that said I hope the Brewers can put something together that is palatable for Fielder, but the writing is on the wall.
