Brewers reportedly sign Jadyn Fielder, Prince's son

Brewers fans, rejoice: There might be another Fielder on the way to Milwaukee.

According to Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic, the Brewers have signed 19-year-old Jadyn Fielder -- the son of 12-year MLB veteran Prince Fielder -- after Jadyn was not selected in the 2024 MLB Draft. Jadyn played high school baseball at TNXL Academy in Ocoee, Fla., and participated in the 2024 MLB Draft League with the Frederick Keys.

While Prince Fielder played exclusively at first base, his son plays second and third. Jadyn could make it three generations of Fielders to make it to the Majors, joining his father and his grandfather, Cecil Fielder. Between them, Prince and Cecil Fielder combined for nine All-Star selections, including Prince’s nods in 2007, 2009 and 2011 with the Brewers.

A first-round pick of the Brewers in 2002, Prince Fielder left Milwaukee after 2011 and hit 55 home runs in two seasons with the Tigers (his father’s primary club) before finishing his career with three seasons with the Rangers. Just like Prince played for his dad’s old team, Jadyn now has a chance to be the latest Fielder to don a Brewers jersey.
