Tigers Rumored to Have Locked Up Miguel Cabrera for Eight Years
March 22nd, 2008 | Brian
I saw this over at Rotoworld first, but it looks like Tigers fans got a nice little Easter present. Apparantly the team is close to inking Miguel Cabrera to an eight year, $153 million deal and all that’s left is a physical. This is a huge commitment but they have one heck of a player in Cabrera. This also blows away any other contract the Tigers have ever made (although they may have to come close when they have to deal with Justin Verlander’s free agency).
More on this as it develops. We probably won’t get much until after the holidays.

What about Inge? Sure Cabrera plays great but Inge was there first. I agree that he isn’t the best hitter in the line-up, but he’s the best third baseman I’ve seen. Also, I think that that much $$$ should not be given out so easily!!
