From JV to Miggy. The man of the hour gets a big shout out from his former Tigers teammate, Justin Verlander #Miggy500 | #DetroitRoots
DETROIT — Miguel Cabrera is the 28th member of MLB’s 500-homer club. Either late this season or early next, he’ll likely become just the seventh Major Leaguer with 500 career home runs and 3,000 hits. But he’s also one of the game’s great characters, known almost as much for his ability to enjoy the game
Cabrera entered one of baseball’s more revered inner circles as the 28th member of the 500-home run club, becoming the first to join it since David Ortiz in September 2015 and, perhaps, the last new member we see for quite a while: 41-year-old Nelson Cruz is next on the active list with 443 homers (though
Toronto — It was getting excruciating, trudging into the ninth game since he hit home run No. 499. He had gone 4 for 31. The last three games, he hadn’t hit a ball in the air, let alone out of the park. Then, in the sixth inning Sunday at Rogers Centre, Blue Jays starter Steven Matz,
This afternoon, as the Tigers were on their first Canadian road trip since 2019, a long-awaited milestone became a reality for Miguel Cabrera, as he hit his 500th career home run in Sunday’s series finale against the Toronto Blue Jays.

Toronto — The Tigers could be getting veteran right-hander Jose Urena back at some point next week. The question is, how will he fit back into the pitching plans for the rest of the season? “I don’t know the full answer yet,” manager AJ Hinch said. Hinch and pitching coach Chris Fetter met on that issue
The weekend series between the Detroit Tigers and Toronto Blue Jays has unexpectedly produced a pair of pitcher’s duels thus far, with the former taking Friday night’s affair in extra innings while the latter struck back on Saturday with a shutout win of their own. Today, the two will tangle once more to decide who
TORONTO — The revitalization of Michael Fulmer is best understood once you see how he slid to the the lowest point of his baseball career. Acquired in a 2015 trade deadline deal from the Mets for Yoenis Cespedes, he hit it big quick: 2016 American League Rookie of the Year, followed by a 2017 All-Star
Miguel Cabrera’s 19 seasons have been filled with home runs, from No. 1 (June 20, 2003) as a 20-year-old in Marlins gear, to No. 499 (Aug. 11, 2021) as a wizened veteran in Detroit Tigers gear. And while we know those milestones — as well as Nos. 200, 300 and 400, which arrived in 2006,

TORONTO — For the second game in a row, the Detroit Tigers failed to attack the left-handed starter on the mound. On Friday, the Tigers pulled off an improbable extra-inning victory over the Toronto Blue Jays at Rogers Centre after lefty Robbie Ray frustrated them with eight innings of one-run ball. He allowed five hits — without a
Toronto — AJ Hinch understands where the questions are coming from. He, like everyone else, cannot wait to celebrate Miguel Cabrera’s 500th home run. But, as he says almost daily now, that’s not the primary focus for him, for the Tigers or, honestly, for Cabrera. “He’s not trying to homer every at-bat,” Hinch said following
