There have been a few on this site that are perfectly happy with Prince and Braun going year to year through arbitration. But it seemed as though the majority was in favor of giving both of them long-term contracts - assuming they would sign. After 13 games, has anyone changed their mind? 1. Prince has really struggled at the plate. He is batting .222 and slugging .289. But my bigger concern - Prince looks fat. He used to be "barrel chested", not he looks sloppy fat. He looks like he has been putting on 20 lbs a year. I am not so sure we still want him in 3 or 4 years. He very well might have peaked last year. 2. Braun has been moved off of 3B. Playing LF certainly limits his value. He had significant problems last year drawing walks. He hasn't shown any improvement this year. If he isn't able to exhibit better patience - he severly limits how successful he can be as a Brewer. My point is, why would we pay Prince and Braun based on career years?
