Fielder wants more money
Prince Fielder is frustrated about his contract.
The Milwaukee Brewers slugger renewed his deal for $670,000 on Sunday after finishing third in NL MVP voting last season.
"I'm not happy about it at all," Fielder said. "The fact I've had to be renewed two years in a row, I'm not happy about it because there's a lot of guys who have the same amount of time that I do who have done a lot less and are getting paid a lot more. But my time is going to come. It's going to come quick, too."
Brewers GM Doug Melvin said he thinks the 23-year-old Fielder is making more money than any player not eligible for arbitration who doesn't have a multiyear contract.
"We view our system as more than a fair system," Melvin said. "You can't worry about it. It is what it is. You do it."
