Fielder won't take short-term deal

UPDATE: OK, maybe not.

Scott Boras told Bruce Levine of ESPNChicago.com that Prince Fielder will not consider a three-year deal:

?Not only is that inaccurate and delusional, but it seems that some people have gotten into their New Year?s Eve stash just a little bit early this year,? Boras told ESPNChicago.com on Tuesday.

?It appears some baseball people are just bored,? Boras said. ?That?s when you hear ideas like that floated.?

7:00 PM: According to what Peter Gammons of MLB Network and NESN is hearing, yes, he could:

For the record, Joe Strauss of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch heard similar information a couple weeks ago. And it?s potentially a very smart strategy. There?s no clear front-runner for Fielder at the moment, but if he?s truly willing to sign a short-term deal with a high annual average salary, some interesting and unexpected teams could get involved in the bidding.
