Tigers' Miguel Cabrera's Biceps Injury Diagnosed as Tendon Strain; Will Have MRI

Detroit Tigers first baseman Miguel Cabrera suffered a left biceps tendon strain in Tuesday's game against the Minnesota Twins, the team announced.

The Tigers added Cabrera is undergoing an MRI to determine the severity of the injury.

Following a 2017 season that was the worst of his MLB career, Cabrera has returned to form a little more in 2018. He's batting .301 with three home runs and 22 RBI through 37 games.

Granted, Cabrera's contributions are largely irrelevant for the Tigers as a whole. Detroit started its full-scale rebuild last year when it traded Justin Upton and Justin Verlander, and the team would almost certainly move Cabrera as well if it could find a taker for his massive contract.
