yea, bizarre case considering the team had to pick him at at the police station. I'm hoping that if the Tigers beat the Twins tomorrow this doesn't affect Cabrera in the playoffs

It shouldn't. Without all the details and only going by what was written it doesn't appear he wasn't caught driving while intoxicated, it's presumed he drove himself home (probably did). Also, there was no mention of any marks on his wife only marks on his face. So doubtful battery charges will be filed and he wasn't arrested on the spot for domestic violence.

Per ESPN
DETROIT -- Police in suburban Detroit say Miguel Cabrera and his wife got into a fight at their home over the weekend after the Tigers slugger came home drunk around 5 a.m.

Cabrera
Birmingham Police Chief Richard Patterson said Monday that Cabrera's wife called 911 at 6 a.m. Saturday, requesting police assistance. Miguel Cabrera opened the door for officers.

Patterson says the Cabreras had been fighting and each had marks on their faces as a result.

The chief says Rosangel Cabrera asked that her husband leave the house, so officers took him to the police station, where he was picked up by Tigers general manager Dave Dombrowski around 7:30 a.m.

No charges are pending in the case.

That was the reason for my comment, lol.

I missed the part where it was reported they both had marks to their faces. I would have arrested both for domestic battery. Unless there are children involved, then the husband gets to go. Just the way it is. More than likely they are receiving special treatment being who he is and the 1 game playoff coming up Tues.

Why is miguel cabrera staying out till 6am and getting that drunk when his team is in a race for the playoffs and who was he out with?? Thats awful that the Tigers GM had to pick him up at the Police station at 7:30 in the morning.

A couple years ago, it looked like Miggy would be the guy to come close to matching Albert's career path. Since then, he's gotten his big contract, put on weight, and now this. Some guys just don't have what it takes to go to that next level. He has a ton of talent and he'll get by fine, but he could not been something great. His TT Autos are going for around 200 now. They haven't been that low since 2003.

I wasn't going to waste my time arguing this point with the bandwagoners. Thank you for doing it for me.

He produced like a top flight hitter. Until he either has serious legal battles or his actions affect his performance, you can't really say he is a waste. It is hard to argue with results.

if he's married to a hispanic woman than he is used to it

cgilmo · Oct 5, 2009

and besides

she started it, and from the sound of it has a good chance of whipping him.

joey12508 · Oct 5, 2009

on a baseball note, miggy was 0-11 in the three games with the sox. will his slide continue tomorow?

markakis8 · Oct 5, 2009

Statistically, he hasn't done anything to think otherwise. While Pujols first few years are obviously better than Miggy's, Miguel Cabrera has done nothing but show he's the second best hitter in the game.

Because he's Miguel Cabrera and can probably do anything he wants. It's not right though, of course.

Thanks.

I wasn't suggesting at any point over his career he's been the second best hitter. I was suggesting that considering his age, you could envision him putting up Pujols type numbers in the future. Obviously, he wasn't able to kick it into another gear though.

he is 26 and continues to hit 30 hrs, 100 rbis and 300 plus average...he definately has time to kick it into another gear.
