I have no doubts that the player community would give Fielder an equally warm welcome along with Jack Z and the rest of the management. Some have expressed concerns that Fielder would sit unprotected in the middle of such a previously decrepit batting order, but I disagree. It will be Ackley's first full season, and he looked great at the end of last year. Smoak has yet to get a fair trial for a full season battling injury, bereavement and inconsistency. And Carp, who was relegated to Quadruple-A for an unseemly four years before he broke into the majors to stay, should be a "protective" power asset who could sit behind Fielder in the order.

I'm pretty confident that Fielder would fit in nicely in Seattle, and Jack Z has the money at his disposal to reel this big fish in not Mike Carp here And as long as it's okay with Jerry and Larry Bernandez.

The Marlins have already made a big splash this year by signing shortstop Jose Reyes, starting pitcher Mark Buehrle, and closer Heath Bell.

Bell and Buehrle bring a veteran presence to the pitching staff; Reyes brings speed and sparkling defense to the squad. The Marlins regular starting shortstop, Hanley Ramirez, has agreed to shift over to third base to make room for Reyes on the left side of the infield.

The Marlins were negotiating to get Pujols, offering him multiple long-term deals before stepping out of the race. But the Marlins are still seeking a big bat, and with a question at first base, Fielder could be the one to fill that spot.

Except for Rollins. J-Roll will probably resign with the Phillies. Without Pujols leading the way in St. Louis, I truly feel that the teams are very close to even. Louis will be looking to get a first basemen to replace Pujols.

The Chicago Cubs will be trying everything they have yet to try to gather a team together that might be able to get to the playoffs. The Pirates will also be looking to sign some sort of power hitter, and another starting pitcher to back up Andrew McCutchen and crew. Speaking of the Crew, the Brew Crew will be looking to find a replacement for Fielder if he does not return.

This time of year is exciting for baseball. A lot of moves will be made. For more on the team and their pursuit of the All-Star, head on over to Lookout Landing.
