Cabrera will get a second opinion on his injured back, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.
An MRI on Sunday revealed Cabrera has two herniated discs in his back, but the 34-year-old wants to be certain before determining his next step. The Tigers haven't ruled out a return over the weekend, but with the team already out of playoff contention, they figure to be cautious with the veteran. He has been bothered by back issues all season.
