Tigers place Miguel Cabrera on IL with biceps strain; Nunez activated

Cleveland – Not much good seems to happen to the Tigers in this city.

It’s bad enough they’ve posted a 7-24 record at Progressive Field since 2017. Bad enough starting pitcher Julio Teheran felt tightness in his right triceps and shoulder while warming up here Friday night and will be lost for at least three months.

And now this: The Tigers on Sunday placed Miguel Cabrera on the 10-day injured list with a strained left biceps. Cabrera appeared to wince after he fouled a pitch off in the seventh inning Saturday night. He finished that at-bat and played two more innings at first base, but clearly he wasn’t comfortable.
