because Prince might not even be in MLB for the last 3 years of a 10 year deal. Cecil Feilder's last season was age 34 Mo Vaughn's last season was age 34, and he missed his age 33 season Kent Hrbek was done at age 34 Greg Luzinski age 33 These are guys with Prince's body type that I could think of off the top of my head. And most of those types werent worth a hill of beans in their last season. Guys with Fielder's body type just do not age well, they never have. He could be the exception, but I doubt it. I think he has 3-4 more years of being great, 1-2 of being above average, but then the bottom is gonna fall out fast. Which is why nobody wants to go past 5 years with him.
