Epic fail Miguel. Your team isn't in a pennant race or anything.

Getting picked up from jail by your boss and team GM is a nice touch.

Nice. I saw something on a fantasy baseball news site about Cabrera refusing to comment when reporters noticed a mark on his face. What a complete jackass.

 

[WaylonJennings]

Must be fun to be the reporter who has to go knock on the guy's door to try to talk to him.

Here's hoping the Tigers dropkick his sorry butt out of town in the offseason.

The 0.26% blood alcohol level was nice, too.

And the abrasions on both of their faces! But seriously, the worst part: 0-for-4.

That's called trying to hit big-league pitching while still ****faced from the night before.

Never bothered Mickey Mantle.

Miguel Cabrera is no Mickey Mantle.

A.J. Pierzynski is involved here somehow, someway...I am sure of it.

True, but Mantle is No. 6 on Baseball Reference's list of most similar hitters through age 25 for Cabrera.

Obviously, he is no Mantle, but Cabrera is a tremendously gifted hitter. Between his issues with conditioning and irresponsible crap like this, I don't know that he has the dedication to ever get the most out of his ability.

Or George Brett.

Did Cabrera **** his pants Friday night, too?

Ha! "True story....so who's pitching for these guys?"

Man's a ****ing God!

"Double-tapered ****!"

 

[mustangj17]

Could you imagine being the officer(s) responding to the call? Likely a middle-aged male or males. Like wtf? It's our star player.

Or what about Dave Dombrowski. What a fun car ride that must have been. And why the hell did he play?!?

I expect Jim Leyland to be drunk at 6 a.m., not the players.

Cabrera is the perfect example with athletes today. They're to caught up in getting "hyphy" in the club and not worrying about what's really at stake. Athletes today are spoiled and need to be brought back to reality. I wonder what would happen if Eric Magini was the Tigers coach?

If you don't drink as much as Cabrera, you won't slur your words.

Yes. All these players going out and chasing after women and drinking -- never happened last century when our athletes were good and wholesome and played for Vince Lombardi and went to church and lived in the community and took the time to sign autographs for the kids.

If Eric Mangini were the Tigers coach they would have a losing record.
