ARLINGTON, Texas -- Prince Fielder arrived in Texas with a massive contract, a home run title and a reputation for playing every day.
He didn't come with much of an ego, though it would've been completely understandable considering he was the son big leaguer Cecil Fielder and played in five All-Star games, winning the Home Run Derby at one of them.
And just like that, Fielder's career is apparently over. After having neck fusion surgery for the second time in three seasons he's reportedly expected to announce Wednesday that he is physically unable to play, thus ending his career.
