Third baseman Miguel Cabrera is out of the starting lineup for Detroit's game against the Cleveland Indians on Saturday night. Cabrera has been bothered by a strained left abdominal wall for more than a month. The reigning AL MVP made an early exit from each of the Tigers' last two games. Cabrera leads the majors with a .359 average and 130 RBIs, and his 43 home runs put him four behind Baltimore's Chris Davis. He is seeking his second consecutive Triple Crown. General manager Dave Dombrowski said doctors and trainer Kevin Rand have assured them that Cabrera could not make the injury worse by playing. Manager Jim Leyland has delivered the same message since the slugger was originally injured. Source: ESPN
