Less than 24 hours after the Brewers fell to St. Louis in the NLCS, the Cubs have begun courting Milwaukee first baseman Prince Fielder with a variety of jelly donuts, from traditional raspberry to the more exotic boisenberry and goji flavors.
“Everyone knows the way to Prince’s heart is through his stomach,” said incoming Cubs GM Theo Epstein. “The last reason you want to get beat out is because some other team offered him boisenberry or whatever. We’ve covered the entire jelly spectrum here.”
According to sources, the Cubs will deal with Fielder’s excess weight after signing him.
