Prince Fielder is expected to have season-ending neck surgery for the second time in three years.

Fielder got a second opinion on his neck Monday and the Texas Rangers say surgery was recommended.

An MRI last week showed a herniation between Fielder's C4 and C5 disks.

There is a chance Fielder's career could be in jeopardy.

"He rehabbed once from it and came back. I think with each additional surgery in that area it increases the risk involved and just the overall, his ability to get back," Jon Daniels said. "But it's not for me to speculate about that here today."
