How Miguel Cabrera's return to lineup can help ignite Detroit Tigers' slumbering offense

Miguel Cabrera is back in the lineup for the Detroit Tigers.

The Tigers (7-14) activated Cabrera from the injured list Sunday morning, following Saturday's 2-1 loss to the Kansas City Royals. Despite Matthew Boyd's dominant eight innings, the bats accounted for one run, three hits, zero walks and 11 strikeouts.

Detroit has lost eight of its past nine games, mainly a byproduct of its lackluster offense. Cabrera, 38, is set to play in his first game since April 10, when he sustained a mild left biceps strain that landed him on the 10-day injured list.
