Miggy, Tigers set to depart for Classic

The top three hitters in Saturday's Tigers lineup -- Ian Kinsler, Victor Martinez and Miguel Cabrera -- all will play in the Classic. So, too, are closer Francisco Rodriguez -- who made his first appearance of spring on Saturday -- and setup man Bruce Rondon, plus relief prospect Joe Jimenez. Efren Navarro, who would otherwise fill in for Cabrera while he's away, will play for Team Mexico. William Cuevas, who made an early impression in relief, will also depart for a while to pitch for Team Colombia.
