Miggy open to trade but wants to be in Detroit

DETROIT -- Tigers slugger Miguel Cabrera told Venezuelan reporters on Saturday that he would like to remain with the club, but he would not stand in the way of a trade if it benefits both sides.

As the Tigers listen to trade interest in all of their veteran players heading into the Winter Meetings starting on Monday just outside Washington, D.C., Cabrera's comments are his first on the possibility of being traded since general manager Al Avila said the club will look to pare down payroll this offseason and would entertain trade offers to get there.
