According to Tim Brown of Yahoo!, Prince Fielder is nearing a nine year deal with the Detroit Tigers.  According to Jon Heyman, the deal is nine years/$214 million dollars.  This news is contrary to statements made from GM Dave Dombrowski only a short time ago, saying that they were not interested in Fielder after the season ending injury to Victor Martinez.
