After trading Prince Fielder to the Texas Rangers, it appears as though the Detroit Tigers are more likely to re-sign Max Scherzer to a long-term contract.
Scherzer will be a free agent after the 2014 season.
"It makes it perhaps more possible," Dave Dombrowski said. "As we've talked about in the past, we have a lot of stars on our club, They're well paid stars and under any circumstances, even with an owner like Mike Ilitch, you can only be in a position where you have so many of those types of players. Does it make it probable? I can't say that. But it makes it more possible going forward."
