Last year Cabrera had a 662 HEQ (batter effectiveness eq; 600 is outstanding). While Trout had a 609, still undecided about the MVP race?

Miguel Cabrera's HEQ Player Career Total (PCT) is 880. 830 is considered a good indicator for a Hall of Fame induction.

71% of players who have 2 or more 1.200 POP seasons are in the Hall of Fame. Miguel Cabrera so far has seven 1.200 or higher POP seasons. POP(BA+OBP+SLG).

Tigers staying on point with sliding drills.
LAKELAND, Fla. -- After a rash of fielding miscues from pitchers proved costly for the Tigers in the 2006 World Series, they had what might have been the most publicized round of pitchers' fielding practice the next spring. History did not repeat itself this spring with sliding drills.

While Tigers pitchers enjoyed their last round of live batting practice, position players took to the sliding pads. It isn't so much an instructional session as it is a checkup for manager Jim Leyland and coaches to find any reason for concern.

"What you really do it for is to see if you've got somebody who can't slide," Leyland said.
Any particularly ugly slides are referred to baserunning coach Tom Brookens for extra work.
"I try not to look when they're doing that," Leyland said, "but I took a couple peeks and it looked like they were doing all right."
