Miguel Cabrera is not even remotely fucking around in preparation for the 2017 season

Today I got this notification on my phone: fullsizerender-jpg-2

There’s a lot of issues here 1. Why do I have the CBS Sports App? To which I’ll respond- it just works better than ESPN’s. It does. Try it. I wasn’t even paid to say that because why would anyone be paying me? This website has 23 Twitter followers. 23.

The second question is why would someone ask such a stupid fucking question? This reminds me of how for the past 6 years people make the “bold” claim that the Red Wings won’t make the playoffs. If you predict it every year it really doesn’t become that bold cause eventually the boys are gonna miss. (long sigh).

People want headlines and clicks, so claiming one of, if not the, greatest hitter of all time is going to go on a decline will definitely turn some heads. But Miggy seems to have other plans for the 2017 season that contradict him “falling off.” And since the Tigers management did absolutely nothing in the offseason besides lose Cameron Maybin, he knows he’s gotta put the team on his back doe. So what is he doing to prepare?

For starters he fighting dudes.

Worried about that ankle of his? Well he’s taking soft toss off some god damn balance pod/things.

Now, only time will tell if this non-related sport balance act workout voodoo shit will work, but I wouldn’t bet against the only guy to win the Triple Crown outside of a horse since 1967.
