Tigers 3, Twins 5: Miggy’s still got it, but so do the Twins

I think there’s a lot to be said for knowing this is Miguel Cabrera’s last season in the majors. For years now, Cabrera hasn’t been quite the same, plagued by persistent injury and a stubborn need to keep in the game like a much younger player. I think this season has been a remarkable about-face for a man who has looked done for years. Miggy, this season more than ever, seems to be having fun again. He’s smiling, he’s joking, he’s behaving like a player at least 10 years younger, and then in games like today, he’s hitting like a player 10 years younger.
