Miguel Cabrera all time great career HOF numbers tracker

He couldn't possibly be any worse as a HC than the current clowns they have in the position.

In all sport it's always been about you get paid on the past not the current. Trout only 115 games played after the big contact, maybe he should retire.

Trout is still an excellent baseball player with 8 years left on his contract.

He's fine it's quite a strange man crush he has on him. Never seen so much hate for a HoF tiger from a tiger fan.. it's weird. I suspect whomever the next great tiger is once they start to age and slow down he'll shit all over them to.

Today, another opportunity for readers to discuss the hottest topics in a forum where thoughtful dialog and a variety of opinions are welcomed.

Let?s create some running conversational threads. And for those of you still going into offices, here?s a question to take with you ? or use via Zoom ? as you talk to your co-workers.

Here is today?s topic:

Last week, Miguel Cabera seemed to indicate that he was pondering retirement after this year. In interviews, he talked about how much his right knee was hurting and inhibiting his ability to play the game. The very next day, he backtracked on his comments and said he would be back for the 2023 season.

Miggy was diagnosed in 2019 with a chronic knee condition that 4 top specialists recommended not to be treated with surgery. His manager, A. J. Hinch, said that Miggy?s knee is now forcing him into a part-time role with the team. He will no longer be able to play 2 days in a row.

Cabrera has 1 more season with Detroit and will be paid a guaranteed $32 mill. The Tigers will also need to pay him an additional $8 mill as a buyout for the 2024 and 2025 seasons.

Starting now and going through next year, Miggy will be playing approximately 3 days a week as a part-time player. But he will take up a full roster spot that will complicate the rebuilding process, maintaining a 40-man roster and bringing up prospects. Overall, this will slow the rebuilding process.

Is keeping Miggy on the roster the best thing to do?

Shouldn?t he have an official farewell tour in 2023 before he retires?

Or should the Tigers move forward without Miggy after this season?

Is there another role Cabrera could play with the team?

What do you believe is the best way to approach this dilemma?
What should the Tigers do about Miggy?

1. Let him play in 2023 and give him a farewell tour.

2. Turn him into a hitting coach for 2023.

3. Have him retire after this season (2022).

It's been min since we had any Miggy data updates.

Game #129, 8-30-22 Miggy was 2 for 3 with a single and a double.

  • Career Hit #'s 3,078 and 3,079 trails Ichiro now by 10 for 24th
  • Career Double # 607
  • Career extra base hit #1,130 trails Tris Speaker by 1 for 16th

Miguel Cabrera is day-to-day after tweaking his surgically-repaired bicep.

Candelario takes over for him at DH but it will be interesting to see how much Candy plays if Miggy returns.

Expect A. J. Hinch to play Ryan Kreidler as much as possible these last 30 days.

Here is today?s topic:

Late last week, Miguel Cabrera went on the IL for an bicep strain. It is the same bicep that has given him problems and was operated on several years ago. Manager A. J. Hinch said they hope to have him back in the lineup before the end of the year. If everything goes well, that would leave a maximum of 2 weeks left in the season.

However, given Miggy?s age and previous injury history, there is a chance that he may not return this year given that there is less than a month left in the baseball season.

Cabrera will be 40 next year and is already dealing with a bad right knee that is chronic and not operable. He no longer swings or hits for power as he once did because of that knee. As a result, Miggy is now relegated to playing only 1 game in each series.

The new GM will have a choice to make about whether or not to include Miggy on next year?s roster. When he can hit, he?s become primarily a singles hitter and takes up a full roster spot for playing the equivalent of only one-third of a season.

This situation will only become further complicated given Miggy?s IL stint so late in this season. Given the circumstances, there is a chance that fans may not see him play again.
What should the new GM do for the 2023 season if Miggy cannot return this year?

What should the Tigers' new GM do in 2023 if Miguel Cabrera is unable to return this year?

1. Bring him back next year for a farewell tour.

2. Release him if he is blocking player development or is limited to playing part-time.

Miggy returns to the lineup for game #147 after a 10 day IR stint and goes 4-2 with an RBI and run scored.


  • Career Hits #3,080 and 3,081 trails Ichiro now by only 8 for 24th all time
  • Career RBI # 1,842 two behind Yaz for 14th all time
  • Career Run # 1,529 now tied at 62 all time with Dan Brougthers
  • Career singles # 1,950 & 1,951 (1) behind Julio Franco for 58th all time

The 2022 baseball season is coming to a close next week. (Phew!)

For many Tiger fans, the most exciting part of the year will start on October 6th when new President of Baseball Operations, Scott Harris, takes over and tries to right the rebuilding ship.

But until that date, let?s look back at the Tigers? season. There were a few good things that happened.

Miguel Cabrera joined the 3,000 hit club and we watched him inch his way up the ladder and pass other baseball greats. He also achieved over 500 HRs and combined with hits, is only 1 of 4 legitimate players to have done so.

Riley Greene made his debut and constantly dazzled us with his plays in CF.

And finally, the Avila Reign of Error ended with the hiring of President of Baseball Operations, Scott Harris.

Which one of these was the highlight of your year?
Which of these events was the highlight of the year for you?

1. Miguel Cabrera passing 3,000 hits/500 HRs

2. The debut of Riley Greene

3. The hiring of PoBO Scott Harris

A.J. Hinch confirmed what Tigers president Scott Harris told Mitch Albom on Friday: Miguel Cabrera will be back next year.

Hinch: "We expect Miggy to be here. We expect him to do his part in the offseason to prepare himself to be healthy and productive and the icon that he is."

In 151 plate appearances since July 6, Miguel Cabrera is hitting .146/.212/.212. His average has fallen from .308 to .251.
He will play the home finale tomorrow at Comerica Park, his 1,000th game played at Comerica.

people act like the first 300AB of Miguel's season didn't happen..last year..more aggressive treatments..play as needed..300 AB for the season max...the idea that anyone who earns then deserves the AB more than Miguel is is gonna get cheated out of playing time is ridiculous..
glad to see Miguel is coming back..curious what the plan is for him both in AB and offseason treatment..in case you didn't feel like the most prolific modern day first ballot Detroit Tigers future HOF deserved to go out on his terms..FUCK YOU THEN..
