Miguel Cabrera reported Wednesday morning to Detroit Tigers spring training for the first time in 2025. Cabrera, who turns 42 in mid-April, will be active as a coach at the TigerTown complex from Wednesday through Monday.

DETROIT -- Miguel Cabrera loved watching the Detroit Tigers’ late-summer surge last year, but he chose to stay away from Comerica Park. The youngsters had a good thing going, and he didn’t want to get in the way.

Cabrera, who serves as a special assistant to president Scott Harris, was back in Lakeland on Wednesday and is expected be here the rest of the week.
