Atlanta — You don’t want to take him for granted. You shouldn’t take him for granted. But when you see him produce time after time after time, well, even his teammates give it the old ho-hum.
“It’s just Miggy,” Tigers third baseman Nick Castellanos said. “It’s Miggy being Miggy. It’s no secret. It’s not a surprise. It’s not a new story. It’s Miguel Cabrera."
It’s greatness. That’s what it is.
Cabrera seems hell-bent on carrying the Tigers to the postseason, or at least as close he and his scorching bat can get them. He hit a pair of long home runs to dead center field Friday and knocked in three runs, leading the Tigers to a 6-2 win over the Atlanta Braves.
