First baseman Miguel Cabrera confirmed that he will shift to third base in 2012 with the addition of Prince Fielder on Tuesday. That should be really interesting. Cabrera hasn't played there since 2008, so you have to wonder how that will go. Cabrera is not exactly known for coming back in the best shape, but if he can pull it off it will be huge for this team. Not just for this year, but for next year when they get VMart back, since he is basically a full time DH now.
My guess is that this season he plays around 50% of the games there if it goes well, and then use other guys like Inge to fill in. Definitely something to watch, because that could go to hell fast. It wouldn't hurt them that bad this year, but it could spell the end of VMart in Detroit for 2013 if Cabrera can no longer handle 3rd.
In a perfect work having a lineup with VMart, Cabrera, and Fielder would be pretty sick.
