Cabrera's back discomfort, that prompted him to be removed from Thursday's World Baseball Classic contest, isn't a cause for concern for the Tigers, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports. "I just got a text from Omar (Vizquel, Venezuela's manager) this morning saying his back tightened up and he's fine. Don't think it's anything more than that," said Tigers manager Brad Ausmus said, who was uncertain whether Cabrera would play in Team Venezuela's Saturday contest.
Though it's worth noting, this story at first glance doesn't appear to jeopardize Cabrera's fantasy value. Of course, diligent drafters should watch closely as their big day approaches.
