From 2006-2015, he played in 157+ games in nine of those ten seasons, playing in 162 four times. He finished in top 5 in MVP voting three times.

@jg7102

I always found it crazy he hit the exact amount of home runs as his dad(319)

@devonbrooks246

Nothing wrong with the way he went out. If you ask the majority of players going into MLB, they would love to last 9 years.

@StuMarston

His dad Cecil was my hero when I was a kid and he visited me in the hospital when I was sick. He said how would you like me to hit you a HR and I said what I'd really like is a triple.

There's a hidden reason for why Prince was also traded. During the 2013 season there was an "incident" in the clubhouse with a certain former Tiger. look it up if you haven't heard of it. Caused Miggy to get injured midway through 2013 and essentially played on 1 leg for the final 2 months of the season and the playoffs

@shelleyinthecity

Please do a rise and fall of Andruw Jones. Another 50 HR guy who fell off of a cliff after that and was a completely different player.

Prince’s best season is 2009. Then his power decline brutally. In 2011, he hits 38 homers. Then hits just 30 homers in 2012 despite career high batting average of .313. Then he never hits 30 homers again. 2013 he was mediocre but healthy. 2014 a tragic season of surgery. Happily he made a great comeback in 2015. Hit over .300 the second time of his career but only 23 homers. But still happy to see him winning comeback of the year. Then in 2016 he had a career ending injury😢.

@Dodgers-sw2uk

His dream was to pass his father in home runs. For him to finish at 319 is crazy

@hofmm

Another amazing vid

@mrmeme-jq6qr

Was a fan of his dad growing up, was a treat to hear he had a talented slugger son in mlb so was a treat to see him around for a short while

@Unkn0wngamer645

Prince fielder is My favourite player of all time I tear up watching his force to retire press conference

@Clipstonips

Love your videos

@nickmartyn9610

Bro his story is prob the saddest career ending I remember when he had to retire to that neck injury

@thomasguglielmo1509

Love your vids, if you intend to do a series on this, please do Ryan Howard, kinda similar

@Adam-vs2in

As a tigers fan I thought it was cool to see Cecil hit a home run in the first tigers game I attended and after I moved out of state the last Tigers game I saw in person was on the road at Cincinnati and Prince hit a home run the first time I saw him in person.
