    It's unfortunate that he's handling his problems with excessive drinking. I'm not a Tigers fan, but I'm a big fan of Cabrera and enjoying following his through the year. He's one of the best hitters in baseball and has a long career if he can knock it off.

    people are over reacting

    he'll be fine

    another 1500 athletes in the nba, nfl, ncaab, ncaaf, mlb, nhl, soccer ect ect ect will be more drunk than him tonight.

    maybe 1 gets caught doing somthing really stupid with repercussions every week or two.

    but for mlb.... this timing? its no problem

    he'll be hitting line drives and bombs come april 1 no problem

    Do you think Mickey Mantle never drank in feb? hell that dude got loaded at 5 am july 2nd before a 1pm double-header and would still go 5-9 with 2 dingers

    ever heard of Hack Wilson?

    common people

    stop over-reacting to news

    Does baseball have more drunks than the other three major sports? Sort of seems like it.

    Didn't he swear off drinking after his first run-in? Someone needs to see that he stays on the straight and narrow.

    he'll hit .381 in night games and .223 in day games. sunshine sucks after scotch. lol

    thing is though, if you got $100 million+ in the bank, what does a DUI mean? especially your first?

    nada

    Pretty cool being an alcoholic and playing baseball at top level in MLB. Not many could do it.

    Babe Ruth was a heavy drinker and womanizer and held his own quite well....But of course the media was turning the other cheek back then.

    he is being charged with a dui when the cops found him in the street ? if oj can get away with murder i dont see why this guy cant get out of a drunk in public. seeing as there is no proof he was driving, he could just say he was letting someone drive him home and they bailed.

    The only problem was he crashed his car. If he made it home it wouldn't of mattered how much he drank. Its not the end of the world for him.

    You have to love the "Do you know who I am?" card!

    Can you imagine his fantasy draft value now?

    What a douce!
