Top 10 Most Famous Prince Fielder Quotes (BEST)
“A lot of people probably think I’m not athletic or don’t even try to work out or whatever, but I do. Just because you’re big doesn’t mean you can’t be an athlete. And just because you work out doesn’t mean you’re going to have a 12-pack. I work out to make sure I can do my job to the best of my ability. Other than that, I’m not going up there trying to be a fitness model.”
Prince Fielder

13 Prince Fielder Quotes on Playing Baseball
