Good sign for the Tigers -- when I heard about the injury I was almost certain he'd miss a week or two of the season.From John Lowe of the Detroit Free Press comes word that Cabrera is scheduled for a check-up exam Tuesday with team doctors. And if it is determined during that appointment that the third baseman has made sufficient progress, he will immediately be cleared to resume all baseball activities.
Cabrera would then be allowed to return to the Tigers’ Grapefruit League lineup on Thursday or Friday, giving him ample time to get properly warmed up for Detroit’s April 5 matchup with the Red Sox.
Cabrera, 28, was 13-for-30 (.433/.528/.633) this spring before suffering the facial fracture.
