Miguel Cabrera is poised to win a fourth American League batting title

Barring another injury, Miguel Cabrera is a shoo- in to win his fourth American league batting title in the past five seasons.

Since coming off the disabled list on August 14, Miguel Cabrera has hit .460 in 59 plate appearances, and held a lead of 42 points over the IndiansJason Kipnis, after Friday's action. The Tigers' slugger holds such a commanding lead on the rest of the league that he could go 0 for 40 at the plate and still lead the league in batting average at the current pace.
