Returning from Japan, Cecil Fielder would become a Home Run machine for the Detroit Tigers. Fielder would win the Home Run Title twice, the RBI Title three times and finished second in American League MVP voting twice (1990 & 1991).  Fielder would be ranked higher had he not been a Strikeout machine and a defensive liability but for a two-year period this was one of the biggest stars in Baseball.
