Miguel Cabrera has established himself as the most important figure in the Detroit Tigers today, so the team is working so that he can have the best possible season before his retirement.
Despite his intent, the Venezuelan slugger has posted career lows so far this year, posting a .177 batting average and driving in just four runs so far this season.

Likewise, the strategist admitted that he understands how difficult this season has been for Cabrera. However, he assured that he will continue to give him more turns to extend his legacy..
"I'm sorry for him. At the same time that he is getting older and is not the same hitter as he was in his prime, I ask him to play less and create more time problems for him by playing once a series,” he said.
This will be Miguel Cabrera's last season in the Major Leagues; during the season he has only served as a designated hitter to avoid his injuries.
There is a lot of time left to finish the season to get into what they call fisnet and lose a few kilos and it will end at full speed and be careful with one more world series WHY NOT?
