Prob not completely use to his no body shape yet, he'll get his timing and muscle memory back. Could explain slump.
 
I never thought I'd get pissed at Miguel but damn, this is one bad streak.
 
he sure is having a terrible start. The good thing is the Tigers are still playing .700 baseball. He will heat up soon....I guess the only concern could be he is too concerned with playing 3B which is having an impact on his offense.
 
He was on fire the first 4-5 games, I doubt his weight has anything to do with it.

All players experience a slump at some point, I'm sure Miguel's wont last long.
 
he doesn't look relaxed at the plate, he might just be trying to hard to make something happen and should let the game come to him... but he'll be alright. imo

OF all the teams Miguel hits the White Sox the third worst... His lifetime batting average verses The WS is .258, and at us cellar field he hits .234.. White Sox have his number for some reason. Now saying that his second, and fourth worse team's are Tampa Bay at .264, and Boston Red Sox at .256 and we all know he had no trouble with them this year.. Come in last place for Miguel is the Houston Astros at .194. My guess he bounces back soon.. I hope :)

That's not good, the Astros are coming over to the AL soon...
(JK, He must've had those at bats during the roided up Clemens and Pettite days.)
 
Normally 0-21 is something to be worried about, but this is Miguel Cabrera, he will figure it out. He's been in some mini slumps before and it seems like he breaks out of them by slapping some singles, then he gets it back and usually goes on a tear,

I was right about the singles part, hope I'm right about the 2nd part.
 
Maybe his slump has (had, hopefully) to do with missing a lot of spring training. He'll be fine obviously.
 
In the first week he was smoking it though. Its just odd to all of us because we've never seen Miguel go through something like that.

The mini slump started happening when he hurt his wrist on that at bat against Tampa. He crushed it off the right field wall and then he began his 0 for streak.

I thought initially too but everything others said contradicted that..So who knows.
