Granted that I am a very sentimental person, but I miss el Hombre. Where have you gone Prince Fielder? A Nation turned its lonely eyes to you.

Ah he's big enough to find. He plays in Texas now.
You don't have to talk dirty baby, if you want to impress me
I was worried this thread was about Lebrons junk
All kidding aside, it's impressive how Prince has altered his approach. The guy is hitting .347 with an OBP .
When he was with Milwaukee, 44% of his hits were for extra bases.
This year in Texas, 29% of his hits are for extra bases.
He seems to have adjusted as he's aged and been willing to hit some singles without completely losing his power. He'll hit about 80 points higher with 25 HRs a year instead of 40. He does take less walks, but his OBP is about the same as it was in his prime.
