Why Miguel Cabrera Is Still a Fantasy Baseball Stud

For the past decade, Miguel Cabrera has probably been the safest bet in fantasy baseball.

Since 2006, Cabrera has had seven seasons with at least 20 home runs, 100 RBI, a .320 average and .900 OPS. Albert Pujols , who has had four such seasons in this span, is the only other player with more than two.

Last season marked his fifth season during this time with a wRC+ north of 160, while he has only dipped below 140 once. He hit .338/.440/.534 last year, improving from his .313/.370/.524 in 2014 (which were his lowest marks since his second season in Detroit in 2009).
