Tigers third baseman Miguel Cabrera is out of the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox. Cabrera left Saturday's game with tightness in his groin that could keep him out for a few days, if not longer.
"I don't think it's too good," manager Jim Leyland told MLB.com after Saturday's game.
Cabrera, who has the major-league lead in all three slash statistics with a .349/.445/.647 line in 536 at-bats, has hit 44 home runs and a league-leading 136 RBI. The Tigers will likely have a clearer sense of the severity of his groin injury Sunday.
